- Machine tool control and CNC auxiliary I/O expansion
- Conveyor and material handling systems
- Packaging line automation
- Building automation and HVAC control panels
- Water treatment and pump station monitoring
- Energy management and utility substation control
System Compatibility
The HE-XE105 is designed exclusively for use with Horner APG XE Series OCS controllers. Confirmed compatible host units include:
- HE-XE100 / HE-XE150 / HE-XE200 series OCS
- XL Series controllers with XE expansion capability
- Cscape v9.x and later programming environment
It is not compatible with Horner RCC, OCS Micro, or third-party PLC backplanes without additional hardware.
Selection Guide
Use the following criteria to confirm the HE-XE105 is the right module for your application:
- Step 1 – Confirm host controller: Verify your OCS unit supports XE local expansion bus.
- Step 2 – Count required inputs: Determine the number of DC digital input points needed.
- Step 3 – Check input voltage: Confirm field devices output 24 V DC signals.
- Step 4 – Verify slot availability: Ensure your XE backplane has an open expansion slot.
- Step 5 – Review certifications: Confirm CE/UL requirements for your installation region.
If your requirements differ (AC inputs, analog signals, or higher channel density), contact our team for alternative recommendations.

Replacement & Compatibility FAQ
Q: Can the HE-XE105 replace the HE-XE100?
A: Potentially yes, if the channel count and I/O type match. Verify the exact specification sheet for both models before substitution.
Q: Is the HE-XE105 compatible with Siemens or Allen-Bradley PLCs?
A: No. It is a proprietary Horner APG XE bus module and requires a Horner XE-compatible host controller.
Q: Can I use the HE-XE105 as a standalone input module?
A: No. It requires a Horner XE OCS host unit to function.
Q: What is the lead time for the HE-XE105?
A: Lead time depends on current stock. Contact us at support@konmask.com for real-time availability.
Q: Do you provide a certificate of conformance?
A: Yes, upon request for qualified B2B orders.
