Question

I need to add more IO to my DL05 and I have already used the expansion slot with an H0-ECOM module (or any available option module). What can I do?

Answer

a. You can convert your ladder to work with a DL06 or DL205 system, since the DL05 does not support local IO expansion or remote IO.
b. It may be possible to have one DL05 be a master to a second DL05, allowing you to control the IO of the second unit. This is not the preferred method to add IO.
