Bus X for Premium PLCs can be used to connect eight 12 position racks or sixteen 4,
6
or 8 position racks, distributed over a maximum length of 100 metres
(
see page 2/9).
For applications requiring longer distances between racks, the bus X remote
rackmaster module:
TSX REY 200
can be used to increase this distance up to
a maximum of 350 metres without reducing performance.
The Bus X remote rackmaster module is electrical. Using the bus X remote rackmaster
module will not result in any loss of performance in reading or controlling I/O.
The bus X remote system comprises:
b
One
TSX REY 200
module called the “master”
1
located on the rack at address 0
(
rack supporting the processor
2
and the main bus X
3
).
The master module has two
channels for the remote location of two Bus X segments
5
up to a maximum distance
of 250 meters.
b
One or two
TSX REY 200 modules
4
called “slaves” located on each extendable
rack.
b
Each slave module is connected to the master module by a cable
5
TSX CBRY 2500
which must be cut to length by the user and fitted with
TSX CBRY
K5
connectors as required (no special equipment is required for this cabling).
Each end of the bus must be fitted with a
TSX TLY EX line terminator
6
.
Installation rules
The rules for installing the bus X remote rackmaster module,
TSX REY 200
,
are as
follows:
b
Bus X remote rackmaster module acting as a master. It is installed on the rack at
address 0 supporting the processor with:
v
The power supply module systematically occupying position(s) PS (and 00).
The processor module must be installed in position 01 (and 02 if a double-format
processor).
v
The bus X remote rackmaster module,
TSX REY 200
,
can be installed in any
position after 02 (or 03 if a double-format processor).
b
Bus X remote rackmaster module acting as a slave. It is installed in an extendable
rack (located on an extendable bus X segment) in any position, apart from the
positions dedicated to the power supply module.
