The backplane combines the node adapter and the I/O

modules into a mechanically robust, EMC compliant unit

that can be fitted on a standard DIN mounting rail and

also removed in an instant.

Fully assembled I/O stations can thus be pre-tested after

mounting and transferred to the application without

further modification. This assembly enables individual

modules to be exchanged and retro fitted without

having to remove the unaffected modules.

The backplane enables real-time communication between

modules as well as with the node adapter, provides the

power supply to the logic side of the modules and enables

module-to-module communication.
