!ATTENTION: Do not remove or replace a terminal base unit when
power is applied. Interruption of the flexbus can result in unintended
operation or machine motion.
1. Remove the cover plug (if used) in the male connector of the
unit to which you are connecting this terminal base unit.
2. Check to make sure that the 16 pins in the male connector on
the adjacent device are straight and in line so that the mating
female connector on this terminal base unit will mate correctly.
3. Position the terminal base on the 35 x 7.5mm DIN rail A
(Allen-Bradley part number 199-DR1; 46277-3; EN 50022) at a
slight angle with hook B on the left side of the terminal base
hooked into the right side of the unit on the left.
4. Make certain that the female flexbus connector C is fully
retracted into the base unit.
5. Rotate the terminal base onto the DIN rail with the top of the
rail hooked under the lip on the rear of the terminal base. Use
caution to make sure that the female flexbus connector does
not strike any of the pins in the mating male connector.

6. Press the terminal base down onto the DIN rail until flush. The
locking lever Dsnaps into position and locks the terminal base
to the DIN rail.
7. If the terminal base does not lock in place, use a screwdriver or
similar device to move the locking lever down, press the
terminal base flush with the DIN rail, and release the locking
lever to lock the base in place.
8. Gently push the female flexbus connector Cinto the adjacent
terminal base or adapter male connector to complete the flexbus
connections.
9. For specific wiring information, refer to the installation
instructions for the module you are installing in this terminal
base unit.
10.Repeat the above steps to install the next terminal base.
!ATTENTION: The 1203 flex modules that use this base may
require up to twice the adapter power supply current of standard
flex modules. When installing flex modules, you can use a
maximum of four 1203 modules with any flex adapter. As a
general rule, each 1203 module requires the power capacity of two
of the standard flex modules, so you cannot install as many
standard modules as you normally would when using the 1203
modules. Refer to the following chart to determine the number of
1203 and standard modules that may be installed together in your
system.
If you are using this
number of standard
(1794) modules:
Then, the maximum
number of 1203
modules that you can
use is:

Wiring
To wire the 1203–FB1 base, connect a SCANport cable from the
SCANport device to the desired channel. SCANport cables are
available in either Male–to–Male or Male–to–Female
configurations. You can connect cables of up to 10 meters (33
feet) between a SCANport device and any SCANport peripheral.
If you use a port expander, you must subtract the cable length
between any device and the expander from the maximum cable
length used to connect a peripheral.
