BusExpander

Purpose of the device

The BUS Expander has been designed to serve as a splitter that allows multiple sensors to be connected to signal bus-equipped devices such as Virtus, Daxi, IQIO or Hero Web Sensor. It enables easy expansion of possibilities of connecting multiple different sensors to a single device. To use its functions, simply connect the BUS Expander directly to the selected device and then connect the sensors required.

Using the BUS Expander with Hero

Connect the BUS Expander with the Hero Web Sensor using a three-wire cable to any 1-WIRE input.
The sensors should be connected using a three-wire cable or to an RJ12 connector. Remember that the Hero Web Sensor supports a maximum of 4 sensors.

Using the BUS Expander with IQIO

Connect the BUS Expander with the IQIO device using a three-wire cable to any 1-WIRE input.
The sensors should be connected using a three-wire cable or to an RJ12 connector. Remember that the IQIO device supports a maximum of 6 sensors by default, while IQIO Sens – 2.

Using the BUS Expander with Daxi

Connect the BUS Expander with Daxi using a flat RJ12 cable to any BUS input. The sensors should be connected using a three-wire cable or to an RJ12 connector. Remember that Daxi supports a maximum of 16 sensors.
