OPERATOR CONTROL STATIONS - OCS I/O SERIES
SmartStack™ Modular I/O

Expandable, Stackable I/O System for OCS
Unlike conventional PLC I/O, SmartStackT I/O is not a rack-based design. SmartStack I/O modules are snapped onto the Operator Control Station (OCS) or an off-mounted base, and then stacked onto each other. They utilize a very small amount of panel space for the number of I/O provided. SmartStack modules are encased in metal housings and meet stringent noise, vibration, and shock standards. A maximum of 4 modules can be stacked directly onto an OCS, and another 20 modules can be added by using the fiber optic FOX I/O System. Color-Touchscreen OCS models can have up to 20 SmartStack modules using the FOX I/O System. There are over 50 SmartStack I/O modules available.They include a variety of mixed I/O modules offering a combination of inputs and outputs, digital and analog, and specialty modules: High Speed Counter (1 MHz), Stepper Indexer, ASCII BASIC, and AC Power Monitoring modules.You can select from a full complement of temperature input modules (Thermocouple, RTD,Thermistor), and SmartStack communication options include Ethernet TCP/IP, DeviceNetT Master and Slave, PROFIBUS Master and Slave and CANopen Master.

Many Ways to Expand
You have several ways to expand the number of SmartStack modules. Connecting a miniRCS via the CsCAN port adds one more SmartStack module; networking an RCS controller allows you to add up to 4 more SmartStack modules. If you use a FOX100 I/O Expansion Module and the FOX I/O System, you can have up to 23 SmartStack modules (3 modules and the FOX100 mounted on the OCS plus 20 modules with the FOX I/O System). When using a Color-Touch OCS, you may connect 5 bases and have up to 20 SmartStack modules. Here is a summary of expansion options:
