Injecting additional power to S-series I/O

Inject power to I/O on the same DIN rail

When the cards that require additional power are on an 8-Wide I/O carrier on the same DIN rail with another 8-Wide I/O carrier, inject the power between two 8-Wide carriers.

  1. Snap the Power/Controller carrier onto the DIN rail between two 8-Wide I/O carriers.
  2. Install simplex or redundant power supplies onto the carrier.
  3. Connect each carrier to the adjacent carrier by sliding together the pins on the sides of the carriers.
  4. Remove the jumper from the power terminals on the Power/Controller carrier.
