7.1 Connecting Terminals and Serial Printers
You can connect up to 16 terminals and/or serial printers for each CXA16 or
CXB16 module installed in your system. If your site was prepared properly,
the lines for the additional terminals and printers are clearly labeled and
terminate near your system.
• You do not connect the terminals and printers directly to the system,
but to a cable concentrator (H3104) that has connections for up to eight
terminals and printers.
• You then connect the cable concentrator to the system with a BC16D
cable.
For each CXA16 or CXB16 module, two H3104 cable concentrators and two
BC16D cables are shipped with your system.
To connect additional terminals and printers:
1. Find the H3104 cable concentrator and BC16D cable.
2. Feed one end of the BC16D cable under the system from the back or
side and insert it into the connector as shown in Figure 10.
