Our Bulletin 2080 Micro870® programmable logic controllers (PLC) are designed for large standalone machine control applications that require flexible communications and greater I/O capabilities. These controllers support up to 304 I/O points with high-performance I/O, interrupts, and Pulse Train Output (PTO) motion plus embedded Ethernet port and Micro800™ Expansion I/O modules.

Catalogs 2080-LC70-xxxx are discontinued and no longer available for sale as of July 31, 2023. Fast forward to the latest technology by migrating to our newer Micro870® 2080-L70E controllers and Connected Components Workbench™ software version 20.01 or later.
