SPX-BE-U-D2: sensorProbeX+ BEB expansion unit 

with 20x I/O dry-contact ports 

sensorProbeX+ (SPX+) is a versatile IP based environmental monitoring system. it supports the connection of up to 16 of AKCP's intelligent sensors, 20x dry contact I/O's, 0-5VDC or 4-20mAmp inputs, control relay outputs and monitor third party devices.

SPX+ is compatible with all AKCP sensors, including the "smart sensors" such as swing handle locks, cabinet thermal maps, LCD display and battery monitoring sensors.

You may monitor multiple SPX+ units from AKCPro Server for centralized monitoring and management of all devices.

sensorProbeX+ Expansion Architecture
You may expand the capacity and capability of your AKCP base-unit environmental monitoring appliance by locally (in the same rack) connecting BEB expansion units, or by connecting EXP devices located up to 1000 feet away.

Every SPX+ comes with both EXP (Expansion) and BEB (Basic Expansion Bus) ports. These expansion ports give users the ability to add functionality to their base sensorProbeX+ (SPX+) environmental monitoring appliance, so the monitoring system can grow with any growing needs.

Basic Expansion Bus (BEB)
BEB expansion is suitable for short distance expansion within the rack. Using a base (master) sensorProbeX+ (SPX+) unit together with SPX+ BEB (Basic Expansion Bus) units, users can increase the number of sensor ports and dry contacts available. Recommended for use over a short distance within the same rack only, BEB expansion units provide a cost effective way to expand a sensorProbeX+ (SPX+) environmental monitoring system. A maximum of 4x BEB units can be connected (daisy-chained) to a single SPX+ base unit. The maximum distance from a base (master) SPX+ unit to the last unit in the BEB expansion chain is 33 feet (10 m).

SPX+ BEB expansion units have a customizable modular design. Modules include:

• sensor4: provides 4 additional intelligent sensor ports, allowing you to build your SPX+ to your requirements. Connect a wide range of intelligent sensors and smartRack sensors such
as Cabinet Thermal Maps, Programmable LCD Display and RFID Swing Handle Locks.

• Dry contacts: Dry contact modules can be added in x10 and x20 blocks. The dry contacts can be ordered as I/O, isolated input only (internal 5V) and isolated input only (external 5-30V). Dry contacts can be used to monitor a variety of third party devices and alarm panels.

• 4x Mini Relays: This module includes 4x mini DC relays. Use them to switch on/off low current devices directly, or use them to drive larger relays. Ideal for systems and control, building and industrial automation.

• 4x Analog Inputs: This module is ideal for connecting third party analog sensors with a 0-5VDC or 4-20mAmp scale output. Many industrial sensors are available with this scale output, opening up the possibilities of monitoring many different sensors not provided by AKCP.

• 2x Mini Relays and 2x Analog Inputs:  This module is a combination of 2x relays and 2x 0-5VDC or 4-20mA analog sensor inputs.
