Prewired cable from BMXFTB2xxx to ABE7 Telefast System
Hi All,
The ABE7 Telefast system, only provides pre-wired cables to I/O cards that have HE10 connectors, Sub-D connectors, 40-way connectors or legacy Controller Platforms. It doesn't appear to provide pre-wired cables for lower density X80 I/O with BMXFTB2xxx terminal blocks. So it seems I have to make one. The options appear to be:
BMXFTW301/501 pre-wired BMXFTB2020 terminal block (PLC side) to flying leads (3 or 5m). I believe the reference for the 20-pin HE10 connector isABC6HE20F (note, the image on the web or in the datasheet doesn't match - the image is correct on theRS website).
TWDFCW30K/50K pre-wired cable (3 or 5m), with HE10 connector at one end and flying leads at the other end. You would need to then connect the flying leads to BMXFTB2000 / BMXFTB2020 terminal blocks, Or
TSXCDP301/501/1001 pre-wired cable (3, 5, or 10 m), with HE10 connector at one end and flying leads at the other end. You would need to then connect the flying leads to BMXFTB2000 / BMXFTB2020 terminal blocks
I'm leaning towards Option 2. Has anyone done this and does ? And more's the point, does anyone have a diagram showing the TWDFCWxxx pinouts / wire colors ?

There are cables available for 20 and 28-way X80 connectors. For 20-way it is BMXfta1522 and BMXFTA3022. For 28-way connector it is BMXFTA150 and BMXFTA300. If you want to know which ABE7 bases are compatible with which X80 module go to module website on Schneider website and click Options.
