To daisy-chain X-Series devices with T-Series and A-Series devices:
• Ensure all devices are set to the same communication protocol and baud rate before
connecting them. If any T-Series devices will be in the chain, then the communication protocol
must be Binary at 9600 baud rate.
• Connect any X-Series devices at the start of the chain (closest to the computer). This
configuration will reduce the number of adaptor cables required.
• Connect a T-XDC (or S-XDC for daisy-chaining an A-MCB2) adaptor cable to the Next
port of the last X-Series device in the chain, and to the Prev port of the T-Series or A-Series
device.
• Power supplied to an X-Series device will not be transmitted to any T-Series or A-Series
devices in the chain.
• Contact Zaber Technical Support for assistance selecting connecting cables when
daisy-chaining multiple series.
