2. Key Selling Points

1. 16 Sourcing (PNP-Compatible) Inputs: Features 16 sinking-type (NPN) digital inputs designed to work with PNP sensors and sourcing field devices, making it ideal for use in systems where the positive voltage side is switched—common in European and Asian automation setups.

2. 24 VDC Standard Input Voltage: Operates at 24 VDC nominal voltage, the industrial standard for control systems, ensuring seamless integration with most sensors, pushbuttons, and limit switches.

3. High-Speed Input Response: Supports fast signal detection (up to hundreds of kHz), enabling reliable counting and monitoring of high-frequency signals such as those from encoders, flow meters, and high-speed production equipment.

4. Individual LED Status Indicators: Each input point includes a dedicated LED, providing real-time visual feedback for quick troubleshooting, system diagnostics, and simplified commissioning.

5. Electrical Isolation: Incorporates optical isolation between the field-side inputs and the PLC backplane, protecting the CPU from electrical noise, voltage spikes, and ground potential differences in industrial environments.

6. Compact Plug-in Module for CJ-Series: Easily integrates into CJ1 or CJ2 PLC racks as a standard I/O unit, supporting modular system expansion and hot-swap capability (with proper configuration) to minimize downtime during maintenance.
