To connect the 1-Wire Extender 1 Distribution Module to your 1-Wire network using CAT network cable, follow these steps:
1. **Prepare the Module:** Ensure that the 1-Wire Extender 1 is mounted securely on a DIN rail in your distribution cabinet, as per the provided mounting instructions.
2. **Choose the Connection Type:** Decide whether you want to input the signal via the Push In terminal or the RJ45 modular socket. Both connections are connected in parallel, so you can choose either one for input.
3. **Connect the CAT Network Cable:** Use a CAT network cable to connect your 1-Wire network to the module. The RJ45 sockets on the module are designed for output, so you will need to connect the CAT network cable to one of these sockets.
4. **Check the Socket Assignment:** Ensure that the RJ45 socket connections are correctly assigned as follows:
- 1: GND
- 2: +5V
- 3: GND
- 4: 1-Wire Data
- 5: GND
- 6: unassigned
- 7: +12V
- 8: GND
5. **Use as an Adapter:** If needed, you can also use the Push In terminal and RJ45 socket as adapters from network cables to single cables.
6. **Additional Components:** If you are coupling the module to control systems, consider using an ESERA 1-Wire Controller or 1-Wire Bus Coupler for simplified software connection.
7. **Operate Safely:** Ensure that the module is operated within the specified voltages and ambient conditions as outlined in the product manual. Follow the safety instructions provided to prevent any accidents or damage.
By following these steps and referring to the detailed product manual for the esera 11140 1-Wire Distributor for Cable Sensors, you should be able to successfully connect the 1-Wire Extender 1 Distribution Module to your 1-Wire network using CAT network cable.
