What it is and where it drops in
The OMRON CP1W-MAD42 is a CP1-series analog output expansion module — four analog outputs at 12-bit resolution — that sits on the CP1 CPU's right-side expansion bus as a leaf slice in the rack. Series is catalog-listed as '*' and ships in bulk pack — both are catalog identifiers on this listing rather than install-driving parameters; what governs the drop-in is the CP1 expansion form factor and the channel count the CPU was programmed to expect.
Sourcing posture
Production status on this order code reads Active and current — no NRND, no announced successor. Standing path is quoting against an RFQ. Pack is catalog-marked bulk, which is the standard handling tier for this module on the OMRON channel and does not change the spec or the install.
