Functional Description
The 1794‑TB3GS terminal base unit provides the mechanical and electrical interface between FLEX I/O modules and field wiring. As a GS‑type base, it includes an integrated shield‑ground bar to improve noise immunity for analog and high‑speed digital signals. The screw‑clamp terminals support secure conductor retention, making the base suitable for vibration‑exposed industrial panels.
The base routes field signals to the FLEX I/O backplane, enabling distributed I/O architectures for PLC and PAC systems. It supports all FLEX I/O module types, including analog input/output, digital input/output, specialty modules, and extended‑temperature variants.
