I think i made a mistake when ordering my parts for a project i am doing..I have one controller and three racks.. I need to link all the racks to the controller. I purchased 3 crp 93100..(rio heads)...i think i should have got i head and two drops...can someone confirm if this is correct and even if it is will it still work?

Thanks

Yes DIO is what you will need if you plan to use MB+ port of the CPU.

FYI DIO updates remote racks every pass of the MB+ token.
RIO updates every PLC scan cycle.


 
understood..but i think you misread...i have 3 remote racks i was asking if i could use remote heads for all 3..I figured i could not but wanted to check.. i now know you cannot and have to have one remote head and the rest remote drops...

Thanks for taking the time anyway!
 
You need one 931 00 (head) for the "master" rack--the one with the processor--and probably a 932 00 (drop) for each of the remote IO racks.
