The I/O wiring recommendations provide guidance on what type of wires should be used for the different Central IO modules, AS-B server onboard I/O, RP and MP controller onboard I/O, and IP-IO and RP-IO I/O modules, how to perform grounding, and how to connect different external devices to the inputs and outputs. This section also provides information on the external connectors required for the RP controller expansion modules and the RP-C-16C-F-230V model. Always use the recommended cables and wires.
This section provides recommendations on minimum wire sizes (cross-sectional areas) and maximum wire lengths for the wires connected to the screw terminals of Central IO modules, AS-B servers, RP and MP controllers, and IP-IO and RP-IO I/O modules. Recommendations on minimum wire sizes and maximum cable lengths for the various inputs and outputs of the different RP controller expansion modules and the KNX Modbus gateway are also provided. The recommendations are for guidance only. Other wire sizes and lengths may be used, depending on wiring rules and when appropriate.
By adding a variety of Central IO and power supply modules, you can use the AS-P server to tailor the Intelligent Building Management System to your unique requirements.
The I/O bus consists of the following parts:
The Status LED on the front of the automation devices changes color and flashes to indicate the status of the device.
It is important to perform the grounding correctly for the following reasons:
For Central IO modules with outputs, the following components on the front provide control of the output channels:
This section outlines the recommended cables and wires, specifying the appropriate wire sizes and lengths for the Central IO modules.
There are many different kinds of external devices from different vendors that can be connected to an EcoStruxure BMS.
This section provides grounding and power recommendations for system configurations with Central IO modules and PS-24V units.
