Add an additional remote discrete I/O to your system.
The ARM100 Remote Discrete I/O Module is designed to extend the control network of METTLER TOLEDO industrial terminals. This high per-
formance module provides four inputs and six outputs at a remote location from a compatible terminal. Digital control information is received
from the terminal on an RS485 communication link.
