Installation Guidelines

• Module Insertion: Ensure the PLC rack power is disabled. Align the BMXERT1604T with the rack guide rails and press firmly until the locking mechanism clicks into place.
• Wiring: Use appropriate wire cross-sections for the input terminals. Given the wide voltage range (up to 125V DC), ensure all cables are rated for the maximum expected system voltage.
• Grounding: Connect the module's ground terminal to the backplane's protective earth (PE) to ensure noise immunity and electrical safety.
• Diagnostics: Use the module's LED indicators for quick identification of input status and potential wiring faults during commissioning.
