The CHARM Baseplates hold
LS CHARMs and install directly onto a vertical T-type DIN rail. CHARM
Baseplates connect to the CHARMs Smart Logic Solver Carrier and to other CHARM
Baseplates through connectors on the baseplates.
Each CHARM Baseplate holds
one Address plug and up to 12 CHARM terminal blocks holding LS CHARMs.
Install CHARM Baseplates
in sequential order under the CHARMs Smart Logic Solver Carrier based on the
Address Plug installed on the baseplate. Connect the baseplates together to
form the power and communications bus for LS CHARMs.
Up to eight CHARM
Baseplates can be installed under one CHARMs Smart Logic Solver Carrier.
Any mix of CHARM terminal
blocks can be installed on a CHARM Baseplate; however, if CHARM Fused Injected
Power Terminal Blocks are installed on a CHARM Baseplate they must all be of
the same voltage.
