Backplane (NX-BASE03, NX-BASE05, NX-BASE08,
NX-BASE10, NX-BASE12)
Description
1. Backplane mounting hole
This hole is for mounting a backplane on a control panel (control box).
Use M5 screw for mounting.
2. Module mounting guide holes
When mounting a module on the backplane, align the mounting clamp of
the module with this hole.
When using as a base backplane (processor side backplane), mount
modules, starting from the leftmost slot, in the order of power supply
module, processor module, and I/O (specialty) modules.
When using as an expansion backplane, mount modules, starting from
the leftmost slot, in the order of power supply module and I/O (specialty)
modules.
3. Connector for processor module
Mount the processor module onto this slot. Make sure to mount the
processor module next to the power supply module. When using as an
expansion backplane, I/O (specialty) modules can also be mounted onto
this slot.
4. Connectors for I/O modules (specialty modules)
Mount I/O (specialty) modules onto these slots.
5. Module fixing hole
These holes are for holding a mounted module in place on a backplane.
Fasten the screw on the module through this hole.
6. Connector for power supply module
7. Connector for expansion cable
When using as an exansion backplane, use this connector to connect an
expansion cable.
