Up to 95 I/O nodes (OI8, RO8, SI8, AKC 16x Smart Case
Controllers, etc) can be connected to one AKC 55.
A maximum of 5 cable runs (1 shown) can be used to
connect any combination of nodes to the AKC 55.
The total length of all I/O cable runs (including stubs) is
limited to 5000 feet. Use point-to-point (“daisy-chain”
connections between boards.
The last I/O board on each cable run must be terminated.
Terminations are supplied with the AKC 55 controller as
shown.
When necessary, individual I/O boards can be placed on
individual stubs up to a maximum of 25 feet long off a main
cable run.
