CONNECTION ORDER

When connecting MX-Modules to the blue’Log X basis device, the following order needs to be considered:

  • The number of lines (incl. line with arrow) at the bottom of the front panel of the blue’Log and on the MX-Modules indicates the order of connection.
  • When installing various MX-Modules, they must be connected from left to right sorted by the ascending number of lines (incl. line with arrow). The following illustration describes the correct procedure.

WARNING 

Order of expansion modules
If you connect MX-Modules in the wrong order, errors might occur and correct function can no longer be ensured.

PREPARATION

  • Remove the upper and lower cap from your blue’Log X basis device.
  • Disconnect your blue’Log X basis device from the power supply.
  • Remove the cap on the right side of the case from your blue’Log X basis device according to the manual.

INSTALLATION

  • The blue’Log X basis device (1) is expanded by the MX-Module RS485/422 (2) with two additional interfaces (3) and (4).
