IC200ERM002
Expansion Receiver Module, Non-isolated
The non-isolated Expansion Receiver Module (IC200ERM002) interfaces an
expansion "rack" to a VersaMax PLC or VersaMax NIU I/O Station system. The
expansion rack can to include up to eight VersaMax I/O and special-purpose
modules. A VersaMax power supply installed on the Expansion Receiver
Module provides operating power for the modules in the expansion rack. This
module may be used without an Expansion Transmitter Module (IC200ETM001)
in the PLC or I/O Station if there is only one expansion rack in the system or if
the cable length is one meter or less. An Expansion Transmitter Module is
required if there are multiple expansion racks or for a longer cable. Maximum
cable length for this non-isolated module is 15 m.

