Version 2.3 contains the following new features, including support for the latest BRX discrete and analog I/O modules, in addition to 3 new BRX Remote I/O Controllers that can provide BRX I/O for various types of control systems. View the
Updates.pdf file for complete details about all the new features available for Do-more PLCs in 2.3.
- New BRX Remote I/O Controllers: BX-DMIO, BX-EBC100, and BX-MBIO for providing BRX I/O in Do-more, DirectLOGIC, and Modbus/TCP/RTU control systems:
Each can support up to 8 BX I/O modules, so with the new 32 point BX I/O modules, each I/O base can support up to 256 I/O points. One PLC can master up 16 of these remote bases, so one PLC can add an another 4096 BRX I/O points to its local I/O. Modbus-based applications can utilize even more BRX I/O. - New BRX I/O Expansion Modules:
