PROFI-8255-G
Introduction
The PROFI-8255 Remote I/O Unit is specially designed for the slave device of PROFIBUS DP protocol. It supports up to 2 slots for ICPDAS I-8k series, I-87k Low Profile series, and I-87k High Profiles series I/O modules. In addition, we also provide hot-swap function for I-87k High Profiles series I/O modules. To setup network, users can choose and configure I/O modules by using the GSD file without any other setting tools.

Applications

- Industrial Automation
- Factory Automation
- Process Automation
