Module Description

Future Design Controls’ FDC-IO Ethernet Modules offer a powerful and modern way to expand your industrial automation and data acquisition infrastructure. Designed for seamless integration with PLCs, HMIs, and PC-based SCADA software, each module uses Modbus TCP over Ethernet for high-speed, reliable communication.

Effortless Configuration, Web Access & Real-Time Monitoring

Built-in Web Control Panel

Each Ethernet I/O module includes a web-based control panel, accessible directly via any standard browser. This lets users:

  • Access and configure module settings remotely

  • Monitor live I/O states instantly

  • Manage network settings, IP assignment, and diagnostics from a PC

This eliminates the need for special interface software and enables remote access and control from anywhere on your network.

Fully Compatible with SCADA & Data-Acquisition Software

Ethernet Modbus modules work seamlessly with your existing SCADA or data-logging software (e.g., IO Studio, Envision, or third-party SCADA systems).

Thanks to the high bandwidth and low latency of Ethernet networks, Modbus TCP enables fast and stable communication — especially beneficial when handling many simultaneous I/O points or real-time data streams.

For installations that require both analog and digital I/O across multiple sensors, actuators, or field devices, Ethernet I/O modules present a clean, scalable, and future-proof solution.

Digital I/O & Relay Modules

  • IO-16DI-E: 16 digital inputs

  • IO-16DO-E: 16 digital outputs / relay outputs

  • IO-4RO-E: 4 relay outputs (Form C)

  • IO-8DIO-E: 8 digital inputs + 8 digital outputs — flexible for mixed I/O setups

Analog Input Modules

  • IO-8AIIS-E: 8 isolated analog current inputs (0–20 mA / 4–20 mA)

  • IO-8AIVS-E: 8 isolated analog voltage inputs (0–5 V / 0–10 V / 1–5 V / 2–10 V)

Thermocouple & RTD Input Modules

  • IO-6RTD-E: 6 RTD input channels for temperature measurement

  • IO-8TCS-E: 8 Thermocouple input channels, with channel-to-channel isolation

Analog Output Modules

  • IO-8AOI-E: 8 high-precision analog current outputs (0–20 mA / 4–20 mA)

  • IO-8AOV-E: 8 high-precision analog voltage outputs (0–10 V / 2–10 V)

Upgrade to Future-Ready Automation with Ethernet Modbus I/O Modules

  • High-speed, Ethernet-based communication — Modbus TCP offers much higher data rates than serial Modbus RTU, making it ideal for real-time applications and large networks.
  • Scalable & network-friendly — Ethernet networks can easily scale; add more devices without worrying about serial bus limitations.
  • Web interface & remote access — Built-in web panels allow for configuration, diagnostics, and monitoring from anywhere on the network.
  • Robust isolation & industrial-grade reliability — Modules include high-voltage isolation to ensure signal integrity and safety in harsh industrial environments (noise, surges, long wiring runs).
  • Flexible I/O options (analog/digital/relay/thermocouple/RTD) — Supports virtually any sensor, actuator, or field device — ideal for retrofits or new automation builds.
  • Compatibility with existing SCADA / PLC systems — As long as your SCADA or control system supports Modbus TCP, these modules integrate seamlessly.
