Previously only available in four-port configurations, the FAS8 provides users with an eight-port AIM station model. The FAS8 station includes one digital PNP I/O signal per port, with an option for 2 Amp outputs. Featuring PNP short-circuit protected inputs, the FAS8 automatically restricts current to prevent failures in the event of a sensor malfunction. Plus, through AS-i V3.0 specifications, users are quickly notified through a fault signal indication if there is a short-circuit on any I/O point. This module also supports both AS-I standard flat cable and round cable to accommodate current connection trends.
