L-IOB Adapter

The LIOB-A2/‌A4 Adapters can be used to extend the LIOB-Connect bus and to connect an external power supply.

The LIOB‑A5 Adapter is a terminator of the LIOB-Connect bus at the the end of the last segment. A terminator is needed if the total length of the bus exceeds 1 m.

24 LIOB-Connect I/O Modules can be connected through the LIOB-Connect bus. Up to 4 LIOB-Connect I/O Modules can be plugged directly using the built-in LIOB-Connect plug. If more than 4 modules are to be used, the LIOB-Connect chain must be split into two (or more) segments of modules using LIOB‑A2 and 4-wire cables (SEL, GND, A, B), or LIOB-A4 Adapters and standard RJ45 network cables. Each segment needs an external power supply, e.g. LPOW‑2415A. This means that with a full configuration of 24 LIOB-Connect I/O Modules, five additional power supplies and 10 LIOB-A2/‌A4 adapters are required.

If the length exceeds 1 m, either a LIOB-A2 Adapter or a LIOB-A5 adapter must be used at the end of the last segment as a termination. When using the LIOB-A2 adapter as network terminator, the terminal TERM has to be connected with terminal B.

Additionally, the L-IOB Adapters have a power output usable for external devices limited to 100 mA (LIOB-A2) or 400 mA (LIOB-A4/‌A5).
