Introduction

The DeltaV™ M-series Zone 2 Remote I/O architecture allows

I/O cards to be installed remotely from the controller and

provides communication and control between the field

devices connected to the Remote I/O subsystem and the

other nodes on the control network. Control strategies

and system configurations reside in the DeltaV system’s

powerful controllers.

Benefits

Shared remote I/O. DeltaV M-series Zone 2 Remote I/O can be

shared amongst several DeltaV controllers for a greater range

of applications and installation flexibility.

Easy plug-and-play installation. DeltaV M-series Zone

2 Remote I/O automatically identifies itself to the control

network, saving the usual no-value engineering work that

other automation systems require. Additionally, I/O cards are

recognized as they are inserted into the Remote I/O subsystem.

Easy to use. Like the traditional I/O in your DeltaV system,

the DeltaV controller manages all activities for your Zone

2 Remote I/O. The I/O cards supported by the Remote I/O

subsystem are the same as those used on M-series controllers –

saving you spares.
