Connect the other end into the top RJ-45 (CH. A MATRIX) connector for
the additional GPI-6.
Additional GPI-6 interface modules are added in the same way, using daisy-chain
wiring.
If there are multiple GPI-6 modules, the inputs in the first interface are numbered 1
to 6 for GPI 1; in the second interface 1 to 6 for GPI 2, etc. GPI interface 0 is
the internal matrix GPI interface.
Note:
If both GPI-6 and RLY-6 interface modules are used, you must place the GPI-6
interface modules first in the daisy chain (see Figure 11: RLY-6/GPI-6Daisy
Chain Connection). The maximum combined length of all the RJ-45 cables should
not exceed 20 ft. (6 m).
Connecting external devices to the GPI-6 interface
To connect external devices to the GPI-6 interface, use the two DB-9M connectors
on the rear cable assembly panel for the interface.
If a DB-9F is plugged into the connector labeled CH. A I/O, inputs 1 through 3 are
available on that connector. The connector labeled CH. B I/O has inputs 4 through
6.
In Figure 13: GPI-6 interface DB-9M connector pinout, the labels on the pins
apply to either connector.
