System Module
M-SPE : System Power Extension Module
In a modular IO station, Header module provides system power supply for IO modules. This supply is connected to IO modules through pins and receptacles interface of each module. If number of IO modules attached to Header module increases, system power consumption increases and then the system power supply provided by Header module will not be sufficient. In such case, user needs to add system power supply extension module in the station.
