Abstract

A unique cabinet mounted I/O assembly adapted for integration into a control system which allows a block I/O assembly to be mounted in both sides of the cabinet allowing a blind fit of power and signal connections insuring that power will be provided to the block I/O assembly before any application of signals thereto and preventing any mismatching of I/O units to wrong processor blocks in the cabinet by a color matching scheme.
