*NOTE
Each signal pair on the I/O bus must
be terminated at the end of the I/O
bus with120 ohm resistors. This
ter
mination can be done with the I/O
Bus Terminator Plug (IC693ACC307),
by using the 50 foot (15 meter) cable
(IC693CBL302/314) with built-in termi
nating resistors, or by building a
cus
tom cable with the resistors
installed
in the connector at the end of the bus.

Remote and Expansion System Cable Connection Example
The following example shows cable connections in a system that includes both remote and
expansion baseplates. A system can have a combination of remote and expansion baseplates as
long as the distance and cable requirements are followed.
