FAQ

• Can I use this with a 24 V DC supply?
  No, it requires 100…240 V AC input.
• How many outputs are relay type?
  All 10 outputs are relay outputs.
• Is programming software included?
  Software is not included; use EcoStruxure Machine Expert.
• What is the maximum switching frequency?
  Relay outputs handle low-speed switching (mechanical relay).
• Can I expand I/O later?
  No, this is a fixed I/O controller.
• Does it support Ethernet communication?
  No, this model has no built-in Ethernet port.

Selection Guide

• Choose this model if you need 14 inputs and 10 relay outputs.
• For pure DC outputs, select a transistor version.
• Consider this for small machines with simple logic.
• If you need networking, look at M218 with Ethernet.
