Mechatronics One of the key reasons for selecting Advantys STB is so that you can design a
system where the control electronics in the I/O modules reside as close as possible
to the mechanical devices they are controlling. This concept is known as
mechatronics.
Advantys STB allows you to extend an island bus to multiple segments of I/O on one
or more DIN rails. It allows you to position the I/O as close as possible to the sensors
and actuators they control. Using bus extension cables and modules, an island bus
can be stretched to distances up to 15 m (49.21 ft).
