Stacking Modules
Using Splice Plates to Stack a WaveBook and two WBK Modules (the handle is optional)
WBK modules are typically shipped with a splice plate kit. Each kit includes two metal plates that screw
onto the sides of stacked modules. The plates provide a means of stacking modules to create one rigid
assembly. Optional handles can be attached to the splice plates.
Note:
Splice plates will partially block the vents on WBK16s and WaveBook/516s when stacked.
This partial blocking of vents does not jeopardize the cooling process.
Connecting Encoders to WBK17
Encoders can be used in a WaveBook system, providing the system contains at least one WBK17 module.
For information regarding encoders and the necessary connections, refer to the WBK17 Document Module.
