Breakout Module Example: Connect Two Branches

7.2
This example shows a connection between two Branches. The Master on the left is connected to ' A ll Signals'. This
refers to the fact that the RJ45 cable contains two communication systems; Branch Serial Communications (Master-to-
Zones) and Handshaking (Zone-to-Zone). The Breakout Module acts as a signal splitter. It takes the ' A ll Signals' and
splits or 'breaks out' the serial and Handshaking. In this example, the Breakout Module effectively connects the
Handshaking from the Master on the left Branch, to the Handshaking on the EOB on the right Branch. Therefore,
package flow can continue across Branches.

7.3
This example shows the same connection of two Branches as above, but also adds the connection to the Branch
Monitor. The Branch Monitor is used to configure the Branch on the left side. A separate Branch Monitor is required
for the Branch on the right.
