The distribution I/O machine operator’s panel is of distribution I/O type
that is connected via I/O Link to the CNC. Its panel is the same as that
of the FS0 standard machine operator’s panel. The distribution I/O
machine operator’s panel has features both common to and different from
those of the FS0 standard machine operator’s panel, as indicated below.

Key sheet The key sheet is compatible, so that a machine tool builder’s
custom key sheet, designed for the FS0 standard machine
operator’s panel, can be used as is. When a new unit is to be
built using the existing key sheet and distribution I/O machine
operator’s panel, however, redesign is required for this
combination.
