In the System SLIO there is the possibility to place up to 64 modules in on line. By means
of the line extension you can divide this line into several lines. Here you have to place a
line extension master at each end of a line and the subsequent line has to start with a line
extension slave. Master and slave are to be connected via a special connecting cable. In
this way, you can divide a line on up to 5 lines. For each line extension the maximum
number of pluggable modules at the System SLIO bus is decreased by 1. To use the line
extension no special configuration is required.
Each periphery module consists of a
terminal
and an
electronic module
.

The
terminal
module serves to carry the electronic module, contains the backplane bus
with power supply for the electronic, the DC 24V power section supply and the staircase-
shaped terminal for wiring. Additionally the terminal module has a locking system for
fixing at a mounting rail. By means of this locking system your SLIO system may be
assembled outside of your switchgear cabinet to be later mounted there as whole system.
The functionality of a SLIO periphery module is defined by the
electronic
module, which is
mounted to the terminal module by a sliding mechanism. With an error the defective
module may be exchanged for a functional module with standing installation. At the front
side there are LEDs for status indication. For simple wiring each module shows a corre-
sponding connection diagram at the front and at the side.
