Conext Gateway Installation

Connecting the Conext Gateway to the Xanbus Network
To connect the Conext Gateway to the Xanbus network:
1. Connect the Conext Gateway to the Xanbus network using daisy chain confguration.
a. Xanbus components can be arranged in any order.
b. The left connectors are Xanbus 1 and the right connectors are Xanbus 2.
c. Do not connect two end devices together to form a closed loop configuration.
2. Use a network terminator at both ends of the network. See Figure 7 .
a. Both networks require two Xanbus terminations; Xanbus 1 and Xanbus 2, if
the second network is used. Xanbus 2 does not need terminators if it is not
used.
3. Do not interconnect two separate Xanbus networks, meaning, do not daisy chain one
Xanbus network with another.
a. Use only one pair of Xanbus ports for the daisy chain.
b. If you only have one Xanbus network use Xanbus 1.
c. If you have two separate Xanbus networks connect the second network to
Xanbus 2.
d. Devices on the Xanbus 1 network will not communicate with devices on the
Xanbus 2 network.
e. See Figure 7 for Xanbus 1 pair of ports - one top and one bottom.
NOTICE
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE
n Do not connect a Xanbus cable plug into the Ethernet port on the Conext Gateway.
n Connect only to Xanbus ports and use the network terminators to each end device in
the daisy chain.
n Do not connect Xanbus 1 and Xanbus 2 together as the system will become unstable.
Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.
