XP 500

Overview

Some applications may require a higher number of inputs and/or outputs as those already available on the WE500 and WE300. In such a case it’s possible to expand the WE500 and WE300 with additional digital outputs/inputs and analogue outputs/inputs, by adding expansion modules of the XP500/ETH line. These expanders can be easily installed and configured, following the user-friendly procedure available inside the webinterface of the WE500 and WE300.

The XP500 expanders communicate with the device through Modbus RTU Protocol on RS-485 and are all slave, for this reason it’s possible to connect to a single device several expanders, that may also be used with any other Modbus Master device.
