Web-Enabled Digital Input Module
X-408 features 8 digital inputs and a built-in web-server.
Applications – Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)
The X-408 is ideal for applications that require discrete input monitoring over an IP network.
Discrete Input Monitoring
Use the X-408 to detect the state of buttons and switches. Send the state of the inputs to other 400 Series controllers (X-400, X-410, etc.) for real-time control.
Buttons/Switches
Monitor the on/off state of push buttons and switches. Using peer-to-peer (P2P) communication, the module can be logically linked to I/O on remote modules (WebRelay, X-410, etc.) to control a variety of devices like a door locks, or lights.
Water Sensors, Float Switches, etc
Connect water sensors, float switches, etc. Configure the X-408 to send email/text alerts when the sensor is tripped.
Security Sensors
Monitor security sensors such as magnetic door/window sensors, motion sensors, loop detectors, and more. Configure the X-408 to send email/text alerts when sensors are activated during specified times.
Process Monitoring
Use the X-408 to monitor photo-detectors, limit switches, counters, etc. in manufacturing processes.
Flow Measurement
Connect flow sensors to the X-408 and configure its control page to display flow in gpm, lpm, etc., in real time.
The X-408 can be connected to many different types of sensors
I/O Mirroring
The X-408 can be used in a larger, distributed system. The following illustration shows how the X-408 works in conjunction with other ControlByWeb products for I/O mirroring.
Contact-closure sensor states connected to the X-408 are mirrored to the relay contacts on the WebRelay-Quad which are connected to a PLC’s inputs
