Configuring SiteBus Devices for an Expansion Peripheral
The RMB expansion peripherals include a four-terminal SiteBus, where you can
connect sensors that transmit data over a single wire. Each of these “one-wire”
SiteBus devices has a unique hexadecimal ID, which is discovered by RMB. After you
connect a SiteBus device and the device has been discovered, you can configure the
device for management by Remote RMX-3200.
To configure a SiteBus device:
1. Power down the RMB peripheral by disconnecting its Ethernet connection to
Remote RMX-3200.
2. Use RMB’s punchdown tool to physically connect the device to a SiteBus
terminal.
Note: For more information, see section Connecting Wires to RMB Punchdown
Terminals in the Remote RMX-3200 Installation Guide.
3. Power up the RMB peripheral by reconnecting its Ethernet connection to Remote
RMX-3200. RMB discovers the newly connected SiteBus device.
4. Obtain the hexadecimal ID for the newly connected SiteBus device:
