Compatibility Matrix

Barionet UX8 is compatible with the following Barionet head-end units:

BARIONET 50

NOT COMPATIBLE

BARIONET 100

NOT COMPATIBLE

BARIONET 400

NOT COMPATIBLE

BARIONET 1000

NOT COMPATIBLE

BARIONET M44

First Connection

The Barionet UX8 is powered via the Barionet head unit to which is connected via the HOST port over USB.

Connect one UX8 to BM44

When you have only (1x) UX8 extension to be connected to the Barionet M44 head end the setup is as easy as:

  1. Connect the USB cable on both ends

  2. Power up the Barionet M44

Connect two UX8 to BM44

When connecting (2x) UX8 extensions to the same Barionet M44 the the process is as follow:

  1. Open the case of UX8 #1 and set the dip-switch as shown in figure to assign “Address #1” to this UX8.

  3. Close the case of both UX8 extension units.

  4. Connect both UX8 extensions to the Barionet M44 USB Ports.

  5. Power up the Barionet M44.

Functionality

The Barionet UX8 is immediately identified by the head-end Barionet device to which is connected to and seamlessly extends its IO capabilities. The IOs provided by UX8 appear as part of the file system just like the built-in IOs of the head-end Barionet unit.

A Barionet head-end unit can support up to (2x) UX8 extensions.
