WIRING
A removable terminal block is used to make all wiring
connections to the XIO device. Attach all wiring to the
appropriate terminal blocks. All wiring must comply with
applicable electrical codes and ordinances, or as specified
in installation wiring diagrams (see “Wiring Method” on
page 7).
Users have the option to connect devices via daisy chain
(using the supplied removable terminal block) or connect
devices via the bus connectors (on the right (female) and
left (male) side of the device). RS-485 cabling must run
inside metal conduits to prevent unauthorized tapping
and/or injection of data into the communication lines.
NOTES:
— Bussed installation of XIO Remote I/O is lim-
ited to a maximum of five (5) modules
— Users can also connect to the XIO power and
communication bus (edge) connectors, not to
exceed a maximum of five (5) modules on 1
bus. Be sure to use a transformer which is ade-
quately rated to supply power to all bus con-
nected modules.
