But if you order it now, you will get the lid for the IOT2040, which does not fit on the IOT2050. We are planning to release the shield with a cover for the IOT2050 in some weeks. If you can't wait and you have a 3D printer you could print your own lid for the IOT2050. Best regards!

Hello begmanu, Is already possible to access input/output 6ES7647-0KA01-0AA2 (IO shield) installed in a 2050 on node-red? Thankou

These nodes are not specifically for the IO Shield, but are adressing the general GPIOs on the IOT2050. For the IO Shield you have to check the pin mapping in the manual. I'll post it here as well: DI0 = D12 DI1 = D11 DI2 = D10 DI3 = D9 DI4 = D4 DQ0 = D8 DQ1 = D7 U0 = A0 I0 = A1 U1 = A2 U2 = A3 Best regards!

I have the design available in Fusion360 in different stages. In case you wish to print a shield for an other interface you can modify the layout as you prefer. Also the raft is added in Fusion360 so no need to add a raft in Simplify 3D. The first layer of the print 0.2 mm is done in polyflex and the remaining is printed in PETG. I will also test with Taulman 910 en polycarbonate to check how good the closure fit’s in the unit. I have modified the design so that the printing on Prusa is without problems or supports except for the two lids You can mail me for the STL or design files of Fusion360.
