Product Warranty (2 years)
Advantech warrants to you, the original purchaser, that each of its products will be
free from defects in materials and workmanship for two years from the date of pur-
chase.
This warranty does not apply to any products which have been repaired or altered by
persons other than repair personnel authorized by Advantech, or which have been
subject to misuse, abuse, accident or improper installation. Advantech assumes no
liability under the terms of this warranty as a consequence of such events.
Because of Advantech’s high quality-control standards and rigorous testing, most of

service time and freight. Please consult your dealer for more details.
If you think you have a defective product, follow these steps:
1. Collect all the information about the problem encountered. (For example, CPU
speed, Advantech products used, other hardware and software used, etc.) Note
anything abnormal and list any onscreen messages you get when the problem
occurs.
2. Call your dealer and describe the problem. Please have your manual, product,
and any helpful information readily available.
3. If your product is diagnosed as defective, obtain an RMA (return merchandize
authorization) number from your dealer. This allows us to process your return
more quickly.
4. Carefully pack the defective product, a fully-completed Repair and Replacement
Order Card and a photocopy proof of purchase date (such as your sales receipt)
in a shippable container. A product returned without proof of the purchase date
is not eligible for warranty service.
5. Write the RMA number visibly on the outside of the package and ship it prepaid
to your dealer.

AMAX-175x Series User Manual 2
Products in the AMAX-175x Series are used to increase the number of digital input/
output channels for an AMONet RS-485 distributed motion control network. These
extension slave modules connect serially by a simple and affordable Cat.5 LAN
cable, reducing the wiring between driver and controller. This is very suitable for
highly integrated machine automation applications.
1.1 Features
Communication baud rate, 2.5Mbps, 5Mbps, 10Mbps and 20Mbps are sup-
ported and switchable
Onboard screw terminal for direct wiring
2,500 VRMS Isolation voltage
Suitable for DIN-rail mounting
Board ID is switchable
Easily visible LED indicators on board to do diagnosis
