The second-generation (v2) Central IO modules feature several enhancements over the first-generation models, including faster processor performance and higher-resolution A/D converters for universal inputs. Additionally, the v2 module design has been updated to better align with the DIN 43880 standard by removing the previously high shoulder height. By adding a variety of Central IO and power supply modules, you can use the AS-P server to tailor the Intelligent Building Management System to your unique requirements.
Power and communications are delivered to the automation server and its family of Central IO modules in a common bus, thus allowing them to be plugged together without tools. This simple one-step process involves sliding the modules together using their built-in connectors.
The available Central IO modules are designed to accommodate a fixed number of inputs and outputs. For example, several Central IO modules, such as digital inputs, only support a single electrical type. Other modules, such as digital inputs mixed with digital outputs, support a combination of electrical types. The various modules enable you to select the right combination of points necessary for your project.
The Central IO modules are based on the patented two-piece design. Each Central IO module consists of an electronics module and a terminal base.
The electronics module is the main component of SpaceLogic devices that are based on the patented two-piece design. The electronics module is installed on a terminal base, which constitutes the second component of the device.

The terminal bases are used for SpaceLogic devices that are based on the patented two-piece design. The terminal base provides the I/O bus to the electronics module installed on the terminal base as well as to the SpaceLogic device installed to the right (next terminal base in the chain).

It is important to perform the grounding correctly for the following reasons:
To design a system that is not harmed by detected minor connection errors.
To design a system that works well and is resistant to EMI.
To minimize the effects of ground currents that can cause unstable measurements.

Mixed modules support a combination of electrical types, such as universal inputs mixed with digital or analog outputs. The available second version (v2) mixed modules include the following:
UI-8/DO-FC-4-2 and UI-8/DO-FC-4-H-2
UI-8/AO-4-2 and UI-8/AO-4-H-2
UI-8/AO-V-4-2 and UI-8/AO-V-4-H-2
