Fault LEDs (INTF/EXTF)
LEDs to indicate the counter is running (CR), and the counting direction (DIR)
LEDs for digital input and output modules

Labeling area on the front cover.
Easy installation: The module is simply mounted in the rack and screwed tight. It can be fitted with a coding element in the front connector.
User-friendly wiring: The module is wired by means of a plug-in front connector. When the connector is plugged in for the first time a coding element in the module engages, so that the connector can only be plugged into modules of the same type.
