The 1769-IQ6XOW4 Module is an Input Module , It provides a combination of discrete inputs and relay outputs.
Here are some key features of the 1769-IQ6XOW4 module:
Inputs: The module has 6 discrete input channels for connecting external devices such as pushbuttons, limit switches, or sensors. These inputs can be used to monitor the status or presence of signals from the connected devices.
Outputs: The module also contains 4 relay output channels, which can be used to control external devices such as lights, solenoids, or motor starters. These outputs can be activated or deactivated based on the programmed logic in the PLC.
Compatibility: The 1769-IQ6XOW4 module is part of the 1769 Compact I/O series, which is specifically designed to work with the CompactLogix controllers. It uses the backplane communication system to exchange data with the PLC processor.
Communication: The module communicates with the PLC controller over an integrated backplane connection. It uses the standard communication protocol supported by the CompactLogix platform for data transfer and synchronization.
Compact Design: The module features a compact form factor, allowing it to fit into the CompactLogix chassis alongside other modules in the system. This design simplifies the installation and organization of the control system.
