The figure below summarizes the maximum distances authorized for the different bus X segments and bus X extensions:
-
for each bus X segment (X1, X2 or X3): maximum length 100 meters,
-
for each bus X extension (XD1 or XD2): maximum length 250 meters,
Illustration:
Taking this into account, the maximum distance possible between the processor and the remote modules is 350 meters.
This distance of 350 meters is only possible for single discrete input/output modules. The following illustrations indicate the restrictions in relation to module type.
NOTE: Extension is prohibited for communication modules TSX SCY •••/TSX ETY•••/TSX IBY •••/TSX PBY •••. These modules must be located on the main segment of the bus X1
