Mixing Diverse Sensor Types
You can mix DPX, DPX2, DPX3 and DX sensor packages on one BCM2
according to the following sensor combinations. In some scenarios, the
DPX3-ENVHUB4 sensor hub is required.
The BCM2 does NOT support any other sensor-mixing combinations than
those described in this section.
When mixing different sensor types, remember that the BCM2 supports
a maximum of 32 sensors/actuators.
1 DX + 1 DPX:
•
It is strongly recommended to use an RJ-12 to RJ-45 adapter to
connect the DPX sensor package to the DX sensor package.
Diverse combinations via the DPX3-ENVHUB4 sensor hub:
• You must use the DPX3-ENVHUB4 sensor hub instead of the old
DPX-ENVHUB4 sensor hub. Each port on the hub supports any of the
following:

A DX sensor package

A chain of DX sensor packages

A DPX3 sensor package

A chain of DPX3 sensor packages

A DPX2 sensor package

A DPX sensor package
