7.2 Maximum station extension
The maximum number of modules within XI/ON station with the gateway XNE-GWBR-2ETH-
IP depends on the following factors:
• The station extension may not exceed the maximum number of 32 modules .
• The maximum permissible number of 192 communication bytes which are transmitted via
the module bus from the modules to the gateway must not be exceeded (see below Table
65: Communication bytes and nominal current consumptions of the XI/ON modules from
the module bus IMB, Page 175).
• If the maximum sum of the modules’ nominal current consumptions (see below Table 65:
Communication bytes and nominal current consumptions of the XI/ON modules from the
module bus IMB, Page 175) right to the gateway (max. sum
Σ
I
MB
= 400 mA ) is reached,
a bus refreshing module has to be used in order to provide the module bus voltage.
To the right of the bus refreshing module, the sum of the modules’ current consumptions
can amount to
1.5 A .
For the calculation of the maximum system extension, the following table contains an over-
view about communication bytes as well as about the modules’ nominal current consump-
tions
:
Attention
Ensure that a sufficient number of bus refreshing and power feeding modules are
used if the system is extended to its maximum.
Note
If the system limits are exceeded, the software I/O-ASSISTANT generates an error
message when the user activates the menu item [Station] > [Verify].
