Chapter 5: Expansion Box and Virtual Expansion Box Installation
NOTICE
The recommended installation wire gauge is 16 AWG (diameter of 1.29mm or cross
sectional area of 1.30mm
2 ) for the power supply wires at a length of 150 meters (500
feet). At the minimum gage (18AWG) for the power supply wires, the maximum wires
length is 150 meters (500 feet) . The recommended installation wire gauge is 18 AWG
(diameter of 1.02mm or cross sectional area of 0.82mm 2 ) for the communication wires at a
length of 1200 meters (4000 feet). The cable must be twisted pair and shielded. The EDGE 3-Slot
Expansion Box and the 6-Slot Expansion Box can supply up to 5 amperes to the modules.
WARNING
Insulation on conductors must be rated for 600 Volts and 90°C (194°F).
WARNING
Installation must only be performed by qualified service personnel.
WARNING
Only one Expansion Box must supply the EDGE 2 Main Controller or EDGE 2
Screenless Controller, and controller groups must be divided by subgroups of two
Expansion Boxes.
NOTICE
EDGE network cables have to use class 1 load type. AP/Cumberland recommends
using TC-ER cable type.
NOTICE
Refer to the Wiring Methods and Materials section from the National Electric Code to
use the correct wire for the installation.
NOTICE
TC-ER conductors in sizes 18 AWG and 16 AWG shall be type FFH-2, KF-2, KFF-2,
PAF, PAFF, PF, PFF, PGF, PGFF, PTF, PTFF, RFH-2, RFHH-2, RFHH-3, SF-2, SFF-2, TF,
TFF, TFFN, TFN, ZF, or ZFF. Conductor with other types and thicknesses of
insulation shall be listed for Class 1 load circuit use.
NOTICE
For the small terminal blocks used for inputs and low voltage outputs, use a
tightening torque from 0.5N*m (4.43lbf*in) to 0.6 N*m (5.2lbf*in) to fasten a wire.
Connecting a Module to the Communication Network
The communication bus enables communication between the EDGE 2 Controllers and the EDGE mod-
ules (terminal A and terminal B on the Automation network or the Safety network). There are two commu-
nication networks available. One of them serves as a backup network.
1. Locate the terminals Automation or Safety on the module you want to connect to the EDGE 3-Slot
or 6-Slot Expansion Box or EDGE 4IN-2V-8DO.
NOTE: You should always use the Automation network, unless you have redundant main controls.
2. Connect the wires from the module to the EDGE 3-Slot or 6-Slot Expansion Boxes or EDGE 4IN-2V-
8DO.
IMPORTANT: Make sure to connect same identifications together and use the same network from
one side to the other.
