Document 51996 AFP-300/400 NION Installation Rev. A1 03/04/03
1.9 Serial Connections with the AFP-300/400 Control Panel
The NION must be connected to the CPU-300/400 board of the AFP-300/400 panel. Serial communication
wires must be connected to the TB2 connector (EIA 232). For specific connections, refer to Figure 1-13: AFP-
300/400 NION/AFP-300/400 Wiring Diagram. The NION should be mounted within 20ft of the panel with all
connections run in conduit.
Figure 1-13: AFP-300/400 NION/AFP - 300/400 Panel Wiring Diagram
Powering the NION from the AFP-300/400 Control Panel
The NION should use terminals 3 (+24) and 4 (Common) of the TB2 connector of the MPS-300/400 board to
get the auxiliary power from the AFP-300/400 panel. This power source is power limited and non-resettable. For
specific connections, refer to Figure 1-13: AFP-300/400 NION - AFP-300/400 Panel Wiring Diagram.
Configuring the AFP-300/400 Control Panel
IMPORTANT: The panel must have a network node address programmed in the panel. This node address
is internal to the panel and can be any three digit number. However, it is recommended that the address number
be the same as the NION node number it communicates with. Refer to the AFP-300/400 manual for more
information on programming panel node addresses.
The NION operates at 2400 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit.
In order to utilize all features available with the AFP-300/400, the AFP-300/400 Plug-In utility must be configured
at the system Workstations. General Plug-In setup information can be found in the Workstation manual.

Be sure that if you use AFP-300/400 plug-ins
that you associate them with AFP-300/400
NIONs, respectively.
NOTE: Use only wire for power limited systems.
Power limited wire runs use type FPLR, FPLP, FPL
or equivalent cabling per NEC 760.
