Is the input and output module a control module?
Input and output module (I/O Module) and control module(Control Module) are commonly used equipment in industrial automation, but they are not completely equivalent.
The I/O module is mainly used for data collection and control, usually including analog input, switch output, and other functions, and can be used to realize data collection and control of field equipment. The control module pays more attention to the performance and functions of the controller, usually including digital input, output, timer, counter, and other functions, which can be used to control and schedule field equipment.
Em termos simples, o módulo de E/S é principalmente responsável pela recolha de dados e pelo controlo, enquanto o módulo de controlo presta mais atenção ao desempenho e às funções do controlador. No entanto, em alguns cenários de aplicação, os módulos de E/S e os módulos de controlo podem cooperar entre si para completar as tarefas de controlo e monitorização dos dispositivos no terreno.
A que tipo pertence o módulo de entrada e saída?
The Input and output module is one of the commonly used types of equipment in industrial automation and are usually used to implement data collection and control of field equipment. Specifically, the input and output module is mainly used for analog input, switch output and other functions, and can be used to realize data collection and control of field equipment.
Compared with the control module, the input and output module pays more attention to the functions of data collection and control, and usually has the characteristics of high precision, high reliability, and easy maintenance. In industrial automation applications, input and output module usually form a complete control system together with other equipment such as controllers and actuators to monitor and control field equipment.
