5 Dry Contact Inputs (SP2 / SP2+ Only)
Add 5 dry contacts per RJ45 port on the SP2 and SP2+
These dry contact ports can be used to monitor any dry contact inputs through an RJ45 sensor port. Have up to 10 dry contacts on an SP2 and 20 on an SP2+. The sensor requires the 10 dry contact unlock license for the SP2. On the SP2+ 5 dry contact licenses are sold on a per-port basis. The dry contacts on the 5DCS are input only, if you require I/O on a sensor port, use the single dry contact cable (DCS15).
