Page 16: Click Mechanism
Chapter 3 3.3.2 Click mechanism imc ARGUSfit (ARGFT) modules and imc CANSASfit (CANFT) modules can be mechanically and electrically connected by a click-lock, without tools and without additional connecting cables. Before you start connecting the modules together, make sure that no supply voltage is connected. -
Page 17: Using Canft Modules
Chapter 3 3.3.3 Using CANFT modules imc ARGUSfit enables the integration of imc CANSASfit modules. These are clicked onto the left side of the ARGUSfit base unit. Additional modules can be connected by cable to the LEMO socket "CANSAS". The channels of these modules are fully integrated into the imc STUDIO setup page as analogue channels. - Page 18 The terminator must be plugged in before the ARGUS system is switched on.

Page 19: Power Supply
Chapter 3 3.3.4 Power supply An imc ARGUSfit system is operated with a DC supply voltage that is supplied via an ARGFT module with a socket ("POWER") compatible with LEMO.EGE.0B.302. This can be an ARGFT-BASE or an ARGFT-FIBER-CONVERTER, for example. Power is supplied to the rest of the system via the internal supply network (power backbone) of the electrical click connections between the modules. -

Notes on connecting Chapter 3 3.3.5 Fiber Converter The Fiber Converter is a clickable module for the modular imc ARGUSfit system. It allows decentralized distributed system topologies. The module converts the internal high-speed ARGUS system bus, which connects the ARGUS measurement amplifiers and interface modules via the click connector, to a fiber-optic data link in the sense of a media converter. -
