JOIN OR TERMINATE THE FLX BUS
Place the devices side-by-side and place the
FLX bus connector
into the two adjacent sockets at once.
The end device on a
FLX bus
(either a
FLX
device or the
CBXi
itself if no
FLX
devices are connected) must
have a terminator inserted into its interconnector socket. One terminator is shipped with each
CBXi-
8R8(-H)
device.
(IF REQUIRED) SET UP FLX BUS EXTENSION
If a
FLX
device cannot be located beside a
CBXi
device or another
FLX
device then The
FLX bus
can be
connected by cable using two
FLX-RMC
Remote Module Connectors, sold separately.
Connect cables to the two supplied
FLX-RMC
screw-terminal connectors as shown above with the
appropriate length of cable.
Note
: Use Copper or Copper Clad Aluminum conductors only. Multiple wired connections can be used
between
FLX
modules, but the total
FLX bus
length must be less than 1200 m (3280 ft) for RS-485
communications.
Note
: The total length of FLX bus segments powered by one source (
CBX
,
CBXi
or
FLX-PS24
) must not
exceed the following lengths:
Cable gauge
Max length
AWG 18
30 m / 100 ft.
AWG 22
15 m / 50 ft.
If the RMC is connected to the Left-Hand side of a FLX-PS24, then it is not strictly necessary to connect
the 0 V and V+ lines:
