Eaton’s decentralized I/O system XI/ON included the XN… and XNE…

and the corresponding accessories.

The XN300 system, which was introduced as the successor to the

XI/ON I/O system, enables flexible expansion of the local function

level of the new XControl controller generation as well as use as remote

I/O via communication gateways. The universal use of the XN300 I/O

system for the local and decentralized I/O level reduces the variety of

devices and simplifies engineering. In addition, the IO configuration

can be flexibly adapted to the requirements of your automation solution

with all XN300 I/O modules.

In decentralized applications, the XN300 I/O modules can be integrated

into standardized CANopen and EtherCAT communication networks via

gateways, allowing the XN300 system to be used with any PLC and

providing a modern replacement for the XION series.

The flexible XControl system includes the modular XC-303. XC-204 and 

XC-104 PLCs, which can be combined with the XN300 I/O modules and

gateways, as well as the XSOFT-CODESYS-3 programming software.
