The I-7188EF-016 is an μPAC with isolated FRnet, Ethernet, RS-485 and RS-232 ports. I-7188EF-016 is designed to make that the Host PC easily access the FRnet I/O module via Ethernet. I-7188EF-016 controls the distributed FR-2000 and FR I/O module via FRnet, and provides the Modbus and DCON protocol for HOST PC to access these FR I/O channels via Ethernet.
The I-7188EF controls distributed FR-2000 and FR I/O modules via FRnet. Each I- 7188EF can control a maximum of with 16 groups, each group having a maximum of 16 I/O channels. In other words, each I- 7188EF-016 can control a maximum of 128 digital input channels and 128 digital output.
MiniOS7 is pre-installed on I-7188EFand is ready to run your C software programs. In addition to being used as a converter, I-7188EF-016 series can also be programmed as an autonomous controller to control distributed FR-2000 I/O modules via FRnet.
