Chained Exciter
Description
EX5200 can be used as standalone devices that function
independently without any network connection. In this
case, you only need to connect the Exciter to the power
supply.
Using the AeroScout Engine Manager (AEM), set the
device as "not connected to the network."
EX5200 can be remotely controlled (for configuration
and monitoring purposes) via the local area network. In
this case, you need to connect it to both a power source
and the network.
The power can be provided either via the LAN/ PoE
connector, or via the dedicated power supply
connection, using 24-48VDC.
In case of a chained exciter, the Master Exciter controls
the slave Exciter over RS485 communication.
An external power supply can be used to power up to
two Exciters. In case external power is used, every
second exciter needs to be powered (#1 in the chain, #3,
#5, #7).
In case PoE is used (either via a PoE switch or PoE
injector), two EX-5200 can be powered from one PoE
port.
