3 INSTALLATION AND CABLING
3.1 NETWORK TOPOLOGY
NexU allows three different configurations:
Wired: In the standard case we have only one line common to all the units of the
system. In this line you have to connect all the elements of the system following the
CANBUS philosophy.
Wireless: In the standard case, communication is made via WiFi. The only wiring you
have to connect is for power supply
Hybrid: A mix of the two previous ones.
As a general rule, one power supply can supply a maximum of 8 units for UDat
power+ or UPower+ and a maximum of 2 units for UDat or UPower.
3.1.1 WIRED INSTALLATION
A clear example of how to lay a wired installation can be seen in this figure.
You see that there are two different colours for the same wiring. Magenta colour represents
communication and power and red colour represents only communication. It means that the
right UDat powers up four elements at the right and the left UDat powers up four elements
at the left.
