On the heels of the recently released RIO-47142 comes the new RIO-47300 which is an expanded model that includes two Ethernet ports, more I/O, and screw terminals.The RIO-47300's Ethernet ports allow an unlimited number of RIOs to be daisy-chained together without an external Ethernet switch. The RIO-47300's memory allows 400 program lines, 254 variables, 1000 array elements, 6 PID control loops and 5 Ethernet handles.  Digital inputs and outputs on the RIO-47300 are increased from 16  to 24 each for a total of 48 optically isolated digital I/O. All the digital outputs are high-power 500mA outputs. The 16 analog inputs and outputs are user-configurable for +/-10V, +/-5V, 0-10V or 0-5V. For more details - see this Comparison of Screw Terminal RIOs: RIO-47200 and RIO-47300

The RIO-47300 uses screw terminals for quick and easy prototyping. Dimensions of the RIO-47300 are 10.8” x 4.7” with DIN tray. The RIO-47300  is $495 in single quantity and $360 in quantities of 100. It is available for delivery in February.

Galil’s RIO Pocket PLC series provides a cost-effective, compact and intelligent solution for programmable I/O control. Standard features of the RIO series include a RISC processor for fast handling of I/O and logic, multitasking, PID process control loops, timers, counters, web interface, email alerts, datalogging, Ethernet and RS232 ports, LED indicators for all digital I/O ports, and an option to interface to position sensors, thermocouples and RTD temperature sensors. The RIO is easy to program using Galil’s intuitive command language or Galil’s Ladder Interface Software.
The complete list of RIO-47300 features is listed in Table 1.  Table 2 shows currently available RIO models.
