Can the Remote I/O connection on a PLC-5/20-E be used to support more than one Remote I/O Adapter? I have a short-term need to support additional I/O during the Plant Expansion, then an entire chassis gets eliminated.

Better Ideas?

Thanks,

Bill

EDIT: I found the first answer. Yes they can be daisy-chained. Not sure if there are "better ideas" . . .

Thanks, Mickey! I found it in a different format, but the answer is the same.
