The IXW-MA-SOFT comes with 4 contact inputs and 10 relay outputs. The inputs on the adaptor can be used to send a command to a specific station to perform a task. The relays on the adaptor can be associated to a specific station and programmed to change state when relay output 1 or 2 on the associated station changes state. This is beneficial when door release contacts need to be located inside the facility at a secure location, instead of at the door station.
