Features:
- Adds four configurable 24 VDC inputs and four sourcing transistor outputs.
- Protects each output group with electronic short-circuit protection.
- Links into a VersaMax Micro expansion chain located up to two meters away.
The module expands mixed discrete I/O without adding another CPU or network adapter.
Power, OK and individual point LEDs give technicians a local indication before they open programming software or test field wiring.
Removable terminal blocks and plug-in ribbon cables separate field connections from the expansion link, helping reduce rewiring during service.
The General Electric IC200UEC008 VersaMax Micro 8-Point Expansion Unit may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Expansion Chain Design
- Controller Range: The unit works with compatible 14- through 64-point VersaMax Micro PLCs.
- Unit Count: A Micro PLC accepts up to four expansion units in any supported combination.
- Left Connector: The incoming cable attaches from the PLC or previous expansion unit.
- Right Connector: The outgoing socket continues the chain to the next expansion module.
Local Status Indicators
- Power LED: The local indicator confirms that module supply is present.
- OK LED: Module status is reported independently of individual point states.
- Input LEDs: Four indicators mirror the electrical state of the input circuits.
- Output LEDs: Four indicators show commanded point activity for wiring checks.
Protected Source Circuits
- Electronic Limit: ESCP responds to an output short without requiring a point fuse.
- Load Polarity: Each transistor output sources current from the positive field supply.
- Inrush Support: The circuit accommodates compatible lamp and capacitive starting currents.
- Inductive Loads: Negative pulse protection assists when coils are switched off.
Approved Interconnect Options
- Included Lead: Each unit is supplied with a 0.1 m IC200CBL501 ribbon cable.
- Medium Lead: IC200CBL505 provides a 0.5 m expansion connection.
- Long Lead: IC200CBL510 provides a 1 m expansion connection.
- Total Distance: The installed cable combination must stay within the two-meter chain limit.
