It is possible to build a PLC station with a TSX P57/TSX H57 processor using:             
             
             
Building Using Standard Racks             
 
Standard racks can be used to build a TSX P57/TSX H57 PLC station limited to a single rack.             
In both versions, alternating configuration TSX P57 CA 0244 and direct configuration TSX P57 CD 0244, the rack delivered in this configuration is a standard TSX RKY 6 rack.             
             
             
Building Using Extendable Racks: TSX RKY 4EX/6EX/8EX/12EX             
 
Extendable racks can be used to build a PLC station that contains a maximum of:

(1) The same station can contain 4, 6, 8 and 12 position racks that are interconnected by 
X-Bus extension cables (labeled 1).

NOTE:  The cumulative length of all the TSX CBY..0K cables used in a PLC station must never exceed 100 meters. For applications which require a distance of more than 100 meters between racks, an extension module allows the remoting of two X-Bus segments from the rack supporting the processor, to a maximum distance of 250 meters, each X-Bus segment having a maximum distance of 100 meters.            
 
            
            
Racks are connected by means of TSX CBY..0K X-Bus extension cables which are connected to the 9-pin SUB D connectors situated to the right and the left of each extendable rack.            
NOTE:  If an X-Bus cable or termination line is disconnected or interrupted then some racks will show a fault. Having correctly reconnected the racks, it is necessary to switch off and then switch on all the racks.            
 
NOTE:  As the idea of in and out does not exist on 9-pin SUB D connectors, a cable can enter or leave using either the right or left-hand connector.            
 
            
            
The two extendable racks situated at the ends of the chain must always be fitted with a TSX TL YEX line termination on the unused 9-pin SUB D connectors, labeled A/ and /B.
