Some modules in the SmartStix I/O Series, from Horner Automation, are considered "mature" and will soon no longer be in production. We recommend considering the Horner OCS-I/O for new users and new applications in need of remote Input / Output.
Experience SmartStix - Powerful Expandability with I/O
SmartStix expands the input / output capacity of any Horner Automation controllers utilizing the CsCAN network port available with every model. SmartStix I/O for HMI offers fast response times without sacrificing robustness, with no need for a costly I/O interface unit. In addition to its peer-to-peer capabilities, CsCAN is used as a highly efficient method of distributing SmartStix I/O up to 6000 feet away.
- local or remote
- short-circuit protection (ESCP)
- removable terminals
- compact, DIN-rail mounted
- easily expands I/O capacity
- easy setup
Remote I/O for Horner Automation Controllers

SmartStix I/O for HMI controllers are extremely compact expandable I/O modules, providing 16 and 32 point digital input / output in a package only 1.5" (39mm) deep and a footprint of 2x4.5" or 2x7". Furthermore, with its small footprint, SmartStix I/O for HMI takes up very little panel space whether located in the main control panel or tucked away in a remote location. SmartStix I/O has a barrier style terminal strip and can be mounted on a DIN-rail.
Easy to Set Up - Easy to Configure
Time and complexity to configure most remote I/O systems is a drawback SmartStix I/O for HMI greatly reduces setup time. Just assign a unique ID to the I/O module using the integrated rotary switches, connect a 5-wire shielded cable, and also configure the CsCAN I/O scanner in your Cscape control program.
Common Uses of SmartStix I/O for PLCs
- manufacturing, for example: custom OEM products, food processing, automotive parts
- power management as well as backup generation
- semiconductor applications
- mobile machinery and also packaging machinery
- water treatment, HVAC, as well as environmental control
- pump, compressor, motion, in addition to distributed conveyor control
