There is a myriad of ControlLogix card features that changes the letter designation at the end of the product catalog number. In the following sections, we will explore the subset of specific features commonly found in ControlLogix digital output modules. By the end of this section, you will be able to identify the features included in a ControlLogix digital output module by merely looking at its model number.
I will detail these features in the following sections. Let's start with electronically fused digital outputs.
