Sub-Bus Hub Module
The G3 HUB module allows for branch distribution from the I/O side of the G3 System and can be
integrated into the existing G3 Series Sub-Bus configuration. Auto Addressing allows for trouble free set up
and configuration. Input, Output, as well as Valve manifolds can be attached to the available four Branches
on a HUB module. Each G3 System can support up to two HUB modules, allowing for maximum flexibility.
The HUB module is transparent to the I/O side of the G3 and does not reserve one of the potential sixteen
positions.
