Warning: The 12V N+ and N- Communication input must be supplied from only ONE point.
Connections from more than one 12V supply may cause failure or damage to the PGM Expander or
device supplying network power.

Slave Device Network
The Protege PGM Expander can be connected in Elevator Control Mode (see configuration section (see page
21)) to allow floor control of elevators using the RDI2 and PX16 modules.
Connection of the communications should be performed according to the following diagram. It is important that
the S+ Slave Communications Power be supplied from an either independent battery backed power supply unit
or a module connected to the slave communication interface capable of supplying the required voltage to all
devices on the slave RS485 network.
