The Premium PLC bus X makes it possible to connect 8 racks with 12 positions (TSX RKY 12EX) or 16 racks with 4, 6 or 8 positions (TSX RKY 4EX/6EX/8EX), distributed along a maximum length of 100 meters.
If applications require greater distances between racks, the bus X extension module (TSX REY 200) makes it possible to greatly increase this distance whilst maintaining the characteristics and performance which are inherent in a PLC station which is only made up of a single bus X segment without extension module.
The system consists of:
-
an bus X extension module (TSX REY 200) called "Master" located on the rack with address 0 (rack supporting the processor) and on the main bus X segment. This module has two channels which allow the two bus X segments to be extended up to a maximum distance of 250 meters,
-
one or two TSX REY 200 modules called "Slave", each located on a rack on the extended bus segments,
-
each of the slave modules is connected to the master module by a TSX CBRY 2500 cable fitted with TSX CBRY K5 connectors.
