1.2 System description
™
The Nexicon is a programmable and extendable
monitoring and control platform. Nexicon
signed as a modular system where each module is
configured to monitor or control different assets or
set of features.
Communication between the modules in the system
is made through the backplane.
The communication to a web interface or to a SCA-
DA system is made through the application manag-
er. The communication to a Xylem HMI or a service
tool is made through the backplane supply module.
This image shows an example of a configuration of a
controller for a pumping station. The following mod-
ules are seen from left to right: Backplane supply
module, application manager, two pump modules,
and one I/O module. All modules are connected to
the backplane.
2 Installation
2.1 Installation requirements
The safety of any system that includes these mod-
ules is the responsibility of the assembler of the sys-
tem.
The safety instructions must be read before installa-
tion.

closure with minimum IP54 rating.
• Do not block air vents. Make sure that there is
sufficient air for cooling.
• The modules must be installed in the direction
that is shown in the images.
• Any equipment connected to the modules must
meet local standards and regulations.

30 V , 60 VDC, or 42.4 V
RMS
with PELV according to EN/IEC/CSA/
UL61010-2-201.
• The maximum current for the terminal blocks is
15 A.
• The system must be powered off before installing
a new module.
• The cables that are connected to the
modules must meet the following requirements:

– Copper conductors only
2.2 Install the backplane
The backplane is installed on a wall or on a DIN rail.
1. To install two backplanes in a row, push the
backplanes together sideways to make the con-
nections.
2. Select one of the following steps:
Condition Action
Wall 1. Mark the location of the screws
according to the diagram.
2. If applicable, drill holes.
3. Screw the module in place.
The hole diameter is 4.5 mm
(0.18 in).
DIN rail 1. Hang the module on the DIN
rail.
2. Push the backplane locks up.
3 Operation
3.1 Startup and operation
Pumps, switches, sensors, and other equipment are
installed according to separate instructions, and then
connected to the Nexicon
is connected to the application manager or to the
backplane supply module. When all the modules are
installed and energized, the Setup Wizard starts au-
tomatically.
