Concept
IP-IO Modules
The IP-IO module provides I/O expansion to your HVAC application over BACnet/IP and can share their I/O resources across applications running in automation servers, BACnet/IP controllers, or third-party systems. The IP-IO module can be installed near facilities in the field, away from the automation server or the BACnet/IP controller.
The IP-IO module allows for flexible control options due to the dual Ethernet ports and the versatile mix of digital inputs, universal inputs/outputs, relay outputs, and high power relay outputs.
When IP-IO modules are part of an EcoStruxure BMS, you can take full advantage of the existing EcoStruxure Building Operation engineering tools.
The IP-IO module device can be installed on a DIN rail or other flat surface inside a cabinet.
All IP-IO models can be equipped with MP-C Display, which is an optional add-on module for output override. The MP-C Display can also be used to view and locally configure inputs and outputs.
IP-IO Module Models and I/O Point Types
The IP-IO module comes in three models with different I/O point count and different I/O point types.
For more information, see IP-IO Module Models and I/O Point Types .
Output Override Function (Optional)
The output override function allows you to manually override outputs. This function can be used for testing, commissioning, and maintenance of equipment.
For more information, see Output Override Function .
IP-IO Module Built-in Power Supply
The IP-IO module has a built-in power supply designed to accommodate 24 VAC at 50/60 Hz or 24 to 30 VDC input power.
For more information, see IP-IO Module Built-in Power Supply .
BACnet/IP Controller Device Memory
BACnet/IP devices have three types of memory:
Flash memory: for boot loader, operating system, application software, and configuration storage
RAM: for runtime operation
FRAM non-volatile memory: for data retention in the case of power outage
For more information, see Memory in RP and MP Controllers and I/O Modules .
IP-IO Module Supported Building Standards
One of the cornerstones of the EcoStruxure BMS is support for open standards. As a result, the IP-IO module complies with the BACnet open standard, one of the most popular standards for buildings.
For more information, see IP-IO Module Supported Building Standards .
IP-IO Module Communication Ports
The IP-IO module contains a combination of Ethernet and USB communication ports.
For more information, see IP-IO Module Communication Ports .
IP-IO Module Screw Terminals
The IP-IO module is delivered with terminal blocks installed on the device. The IP-IO module uses pluggable terminal blocks, which are easy to install and remove from the device.
For more information, see IP-IO Module Screw Terminals .
IP-IO Module LEDs
There are three LEDs on the front panel of the IP-IO module.
For more information, see IP-IO Module LEDs .
IP-IO Module Reset Modes
You can reset and restart the IP-IO modules in different ways depending on how long you press the reset button. The resets and restarts can affect the retention of values after restart based on the retain levels configured for the variables.
For more information, see IP-IO and RP-IO Module Reset Modes .
IP-IO Module Device Installation
The IP-IO module can be installed on a DIN rail or other flat surface inside a cabinet. The device is recommended to be installed in a cabinet, unless local regulations allow an exception.
For more information, see IP-IO Module Device Installation .
Wiring
The wiring recommendations provide guidance regarding wiring of the Central IO modules, automation servers, BACnet/IP devices, RP controller expansion modules, and Operator Display.
For more information, see Wiring .
BACnet/IP Device Firmware Management
Using WorkStation, you can update the firmware of multiple BACnet/IP devices and their attached SpaceLogic Sensor devices at the same time with minimum downtime. In particular, the universal upgrade package simplifies the update process and requires minimal user involvement and coordination.
SpaceLogic Sensor devices are supported by the BACnet/IP controllers - MP and RP controllers.
For more information, see BACnet/IP Device Firmware Management .
