Multiple Units
Most applications will require more than one
MiniModule, which can include any of the available
Series 3000 MiniModule product range. There are two
options for mounting multiple units.
a)
Using the R FR 3005 Rack Frame option. This allows
up to any 10 of the MiniModules to be secured
onto a rack frame assembly for 19 inch rack
mounting. The R PS 3001 power brick option or the R
FR 3010 option is required to power each module.
Please refer to the R FR 3005 Reference Manual for
more details.
b)
Using the R FR 3010 Rack frame extension option.
Can be combined with the R FR 3005 Rack frame
option. Each module plugs into a connection bus,
which provides common power for all modules. (no
R PS external power supplies are needed). Remote
control and status monitoring of all modules is
possible with the addition of the R CT 5020 rack
controller and R CT 5030 master controller options.
Please refer to the respective reference manuals
for these options for details of mechanical
installation.
The very small size and density of the MiniModules
combined with the available rack frame options allows
the addition of a complex and custom signal
distribution system without taking any additional front
rack space. The rack frames are designed for
installation in the back of 19-inch racks where there is
normally plenty of available space. Ideal for mobile
truck installations and facility expansions where space
is at a premium.
