You can wire a terminal base prior to installing an electronics module.
The terminal bases are used for SpaceLogic devices that are based on the patented two-piece design. The terminal base provides the I/O bus to the electronics module installed on the terminal base as well as to the SpaceLogic device installed to the right (next terminal base in the chain).
The Status LED on the front of the automation devices changes color and flashes to indicate the status of the device.
You perform the following steps to power up a device.
Use the power budget to calculate the maximum number of devices that the power supply can supply. If more devices are used, additional power supplies must be added to the I/O bus.
Use the power budget to calculate the maximum number of Central IO modules that the AS-P-3 server can supply. If more I/O modules are used, PS-24V power supplies must be added to the I/O bus.
The I/O bus is a common bus that delivers power, address information, and communication to all devices connected to the bus. The term I/O bus also denotes the chain of devices that are connected together.
The I/O bus imposes restrictions on the number of devices that can be connected to the bus and what type of devices that are allowed on certain positions.
The I/O bus consists of the following parts:
You install an electronics module directly onto the relevant terminal base, where it will connect to the power supply and address bus.
