Figure 4-12: GPI-6 Application Examples
Figure 4-11 and Figure 4-12 show how to connect switches or contacts
using the power source provided by the GPI-6 module or powering
switches from external sources. Each input can be wired to be isolated
from each other as a further variation.
IMF-102 Interface Module Frame Wiring
The wiring of a GPI-6 interface that is placed in an IMF-102 interface
frame is the same as the wiring for a GPI-6 interface placed in an
IMF-3 interface frame. The only difference is that an IMF-102 interface
frame houses only two interfaces, and they are mounted horizontally
rather than vertically in the frame.
Refer to the respective manuals for these interfaces and frames in the
Eclipse manual set for more information.
Configuration
To define an input function, use the Eclipse Configuration System
program, as described in its manual.
WIRING TO A SECOND ECLIPSE MATRIX
The RJ-45 connector labeled “Base Loop” connects the Eclipse PiCo
matrix to a second Eclipse PiCo matrix’s “Base Loop” connector to
form one non-blocking 64 port Eclipse system.
To make this connection, use a specially constructed screened CAT-5
cable of maximum length 1 meter (3.28 feet). The cable is wired as
shown in Table 4-1.
