Maximum Words per Network (for every 
DIO drop, there is a minimum of words 
input of overhead.)
500 In and 500 Out
Maximum Words per Node 30 In and 32 Out 
*This information can be a mix if Discrete or Register I/O. For each word of register I/O configured, one word of I/O 
words must be subtracted from the total available. The same holds true for each block of 8 bits or 16 bits of Discrete 
I/O configured---one word Register I/O must be subtracted from the total available.
**Requires the use of two 140NOM21X00 Option Modules.
Maximun Number of Network Option 
Module Interfaces
Supports up to six network modules (i.e., Modbus Plus, Ethernet and Multi-
Axis Motion option modules) using the option module interface technique 
(see Quantum Network Interface Techniques, p. 47).
 Note: Only two Modbus Plus modules can have full functionality, Including 
Quantum DIO support. 
Watchdog timer 250 ms (software adjustable)
Logic Solve Time 0.1 ms/k to 0.5 ms/k
Battery
Type 3 V Lithium
