The ICPDAS XP-8000, XP-8000-CE6, XP-8000-CE6-PRO, WinCon-8000, WP-8000, LinCon-8000, LP-8000, I-8000 and iP-8000 series modules are all Programmable Automation Controllers (PACs) that use an I-8172W FRnet communication module to implement an FRnet network. The I-8172W is an isolated FRnet communication controlers. The I-8172W has two FRnet ports, each FRnet port can control a maximum of 16 communication nodes, numbered from 0 to 15. Each single node of the remote I/O module can control a maximum of 16 DI/DO channels. In other words, each FRnet port can control a maximum of 128 DI and 128 DO channels.
