DX Sensor Packages
Most DX sensor packages contain terminals for connecting detectors or
actuators. For information on connecting actuators or detectors to DX
terminals, refer to the Environmental Sensors and Actuators Guide (or
Online Help) on Raritan website's
Support page
( ).
You can cascade up to 12 DX sensor packages.
When cascading DX, remember that the SRC only supports a maximum
of 32 sensors and/or actuators.
If there are more than 32 sensors and/or actuators connected, every
sensor and/or actuator after the 32nd one is NOT managed by the SRC.
For example, if you cascade 12 DX packages, and each package contains
3 functions (a function is a sensor or actuator), the SRC does NOT
manage the last 4 functions because the total 36 (12*3=36) exceeds 32 by
4.
Tip: To manage the last several sensors/actuators after 32nd function,
you can release some "managed" sensors or actuators, and then
manually bring the last several sensors/actuators into management. See
Peripherals
(on page 115).
Numbers Components
RJ-45 ports, each of which is located on
either end of a DX sensor package.
RJ-12 port, which is reserved for future
use and now blocked.
Removable rackmount brackets.
Connect DX to the SRC:
1. Connect a standard network patch cable (CAT5e or higher) to either
RJ-45 port on a DX sensor package.
2. If you want to cascade DX packages, get an additional standard
network patch cable (CAT5e or higher) and then:
