In our blog posts last year, we already introduced the INTRON-X modules XCO<\/a> and XDG<\/a>. Today we want to proceed with the XIO – our I\/O module<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

XIO<\/strong> \u2013 <\/strong>Our Module for Successful Input\/Output Control<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The XIO is used to read in inputs and switch outputs. One XIO module has 24 bidirectional potential-free control I\/Os.
As the control inputs and outputs are divided into separate groups of 12, it is possible to connect two systems at different voltage potential to one XIO module.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The module has also 2 Ethernet interfaces which allow for a redundant network access. If one network interface fails, data is transmitted via the second one. The XIO has an automatic integrated self-monitoring function. So inputs and outputs, connection cables, and power supplies can be permanently monitored.
Together with flexible redundancy concepts (A+B and Hot-Standby) the XIO ensures continuous operation and maximum system availability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Application Examples<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Connection to F&G Systems<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The XIO module is mainly used for the connection to a Fire & Gas system via contacts. This system controls a wide variety of warning sequences. It is possible to start the pre-programmed evacuation sequence manually or automatically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Connection to Building Management Systems (BMS)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If no network-based interface such as ModbusTCP is available, analog connection via the XIO is a practical solution. PLC devices from building management systems, for example, can also be connected via I\/O and thus exchange bi-directional control signals. This enables fire doors to be closed or an emergency shutdown to be transmitted to a BMS via a control signal in the event of an active alarm. Situation-dependent announcements are automatically issued, e.g., to prevent panic and significantly speed up evacuation through targeted instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Monitoring Functions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is also possible to integrate other systems into the INTRON-X monitoring via the inputs of the XIO. For example, fault messages from emergency power supplies, access control or CCTV systems can be read in and immediately transmitted to a control station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another option is the use of manual call points that, depending on the requirement, trigger a direct action or start an alarm only after confirmation from a control station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Decentralized Installation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As the XIO communicates with the INTRON-X controller via Ethernet, there is also the option of a decentralized installation. It can be installed anywhere where network access is available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, a software logic module can be activated within the INTRON-X using the Config Manager X, via which all input signals can be evaluated and processed. This makes countless if-then scenarios possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
