Discrete and analog modular TBX modules (IP20)
(Original Document)
General
The number of inputs/outputs in a modular TBX is defined by the number (1 or 2) and the type of base units used.
This number can be from 10 to 32 for discrete base units, and from 4 to 16 for analogue base units.
The Fipio connection point address assignment is set via 8 dip‐switches allowing up to 126 modular TBX modules to be connected to the bus. Addresses 0 and 62 are reserved for the PLC and the terminal.
A display block indicates locally the status of the modular TBX and its inputs and/or outputs: basic and extension modules.
At a Glance
The modular TBX module has 4 physical components:
The following diagram shows a modular TBX module.
The base units (2) and (4) share the same features and thus are interchangeable.
