Good day all,

I recently bought a second hand plug bar from someone. I noticed there is a difference between the one that came with my profilux 3x Ultimate edtion which is the 6D-PAB plug bar and the second hand one which is just a 6D plug bar (there is NO PAB after the 6D like on my original one).

My questions:

1. I have done some research on the web and it does seem that there is a difference and I am looking for someone to just verify my thinking:

1. 6D-PAB is connected to the PAB port on the P3X
2. 6D is connected to one of the S1 to S4 connections on the P3X.

2. I can't find what the main differences between the 6D-PAB and the 6D is could someone please inlighten me?

3. I noticed another forum memeber posting http://forum.aquariumcomputer.com/showthread.php?5735-How-to-assign-Non-PAB-digital-powerbars and asking about assignments, can one with the 6D not do assignments in Profilux control like you can with the 6D-PAB?

4. The 6D you can use the sockets in a programing logic function and or turn on and off depending on values etc like you can do with the 6D-PAB?

I really appreciate the help!

Yes.

Yes. You have to set the port to digital control also.

It´s the same in general but it has to be done on different menues of PLC
