Add AC-2705X for equipment status and control<\/h2>\n
\n
\"AC-2705X<\/figure>\n
\n

Extend the M1, M4 and AG-2701X collection setup with AC-2705X where needed: four isolated inputs collect status and eight relay outputs connect field controls. Confirm signals, loads and feedback before configuring equipment and software.<\/p>\n
