Features

M74R Features

M74R is a universal smart I/O module that expands the M74 series and can also connect directly to a PLC, PC or touch panel. It provides 4 CT inputs, 4 DI inputs and 8 relay contact outputs. Connect up to 3 M74R units per M74 or M74P controller, or up to 189 units through external communication in a standalone configuration.

  • Compact construction

    At approximately 70% of the volume of competing products, M74R helps make efficient use of control-panel space.

  • Versatile inputs and outputs

    Provides 4 CT inputs, 4 DI inputs and 8 relay contact outputs.

  • Automatic detection and mapping

    Automatically maps I/O through internal communication when connected to M74 series modules.

  • Universal I/O module

    Can interface directly with a PC, PLC or touch panel as a standalone module.

  • High-speed host communication

    Supports Modbus ASCII/RTU and PC-Link at communication speeds up to 115,200 bps.

  • Automatic copying and setup of communication parameters

    Configure one module to automatically assign station numbers 1~63 and copy its settings.

  • Fully isolated design

    A fully isolated design separates the inputs and outputs. The specified terminal pairs are rated for a dielectric strength test of 1,000 V AC for 1 minute.

  • Module expansion configurations

    Connect up to 3 M74R units per M74 or M74P controller, up to 189 units in a standalone external communication configuration, or manage up to 93 M74R units through M74C.
