Local Expansion Adapter Kits allow you to increase the number of I/Os connected to a
single UniStream
®
by enabling you to link the controller to additional Uni-I/O™ modules.
This guide provides specifications for Unitronics’ Short Range and Long Range Local
Expansion Adapter Kit for Uni-I/O™.
All Kits comprise a Base unit, an End unit, and a connecting cable. The cable length varies
according to kit model.
Short-range adapter Kits
Up to 3 meters
Long-range adapter Kits
3 meters and up
Kits whose models contain the letter 'P' include a built-in power supply; a powered adapter
module supports a greater number of I/O modules.
There are two main classes of adapters:
UAG-XK
Both the Base and End units of these adapters have DIN-rail clips. You can:
Snap the base onto the DIN-rail type structure on the back of
UniStream
Modular
HMI
Snap the base directly onto a
UniStream PLC
UAG-CX
The base unit of these adapters has a plug; the end unit has DIN-rail clips. You can plug
the base unit only into the
I/O Expansion Jack
offered by the
UniStream Built-in
series
.
Note that the maximum number of modules supported by a single controller is provided in
the controller’s technical specifications.
Technical specifications are available in Unitronics’ Technical Library at
Adapter Models
The ‘x’s in the model numbers are placeholders for the cable lengths.
