ODULES
The ILIM-2 is provided in two different package formats:
External (stand-alone) Module:
The ILIM-2 can be ordered as an external, stand-alone module that is connected to the
IntelliLogger System Base via a BBus cable (Figure 3-15). Several mounting options are
available for a stand-alone ILIM-2 Interface modules. A Surface Mounting Bracket (P/N
3539.30010) fastens to the back of the ILIM-2 and allows mounting onto any external
surface. A Stair-Step Mounting Bracket (PN 3539.30000) allows mounting of the module
(or multiple modules) onto the back of an IntelliLogger System Base.

Internal Module:
The ILIM-2 can also be ordered integrated into an IntelliLogger System base enclosure.
The IntelliLogger IL-90 contains an ILIM-2 Digital Interface Module already packaged
within the System Base. In this configuration, the internal ILIM-2 module operates
exactly the same as an external ILIM-2 module; the only difference is that the BBus
connection is implemented inside the enclosure.

TIP:
When integrated as part of the IL-90 chassis, the screen-printed labels on
top of the ILIM-2 are not visible to help identify specific input channels, but
all channels and connectors are the same on both models. Both models
also have labels on the printed circuit board to help identify the proper
connection points for each Digital Input. (Figure 3-18)
