Introduction
The 45ML series includes serial interface modules that can be used with the ioThinx 4500 Series head/CPU module, which has the communication bus installed on the left side. With its unique mechanical design, hardware installation and removal can be done easily without tools, greatly reducing the amount of time required to set up and replace the modules.Easy Tool-Free Installation and Removal The ioThinx 4500 Series has a unique mechanical design that reduces the amount of time required for installation and removal. In fact, screwdrivers and other tools are not required for any part of the hardware installation, including mounting the device on a DIN-rail, as well as connecting the wiring for both communication and I/O signal acquisition. Furthermore, no tools are required to remove the ioThinx from a DIN-rail. Removing all of the modules from a DIN-rail is also easy using the latch and release tab.
