ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
The upper power supply limits must not be exceeded, as this could cause serious damage to the module.
Switch the module off before connecting inputs and outputs.
To meet the electromagnetic immunity requirements:
– use shielded signal cables;
– connect the shield to a preferential instrumentation earth system;
– separate shielded cables from other cables used for power installations (transformers, inverters, motors, etc.).
SETTING THE DIP-SWITCHES
WARNING
The DIP-switch settings are read only at boot time. At each change, perform a restart.
For use and settings via DIP-SWITCH, see the user manual available on the website on the web page dedicated to the product
SW1 DIP-SWITCH: DEFAULT SETTINGS
DIP-SWITCH SW1 is located on the front of the device.
DAISY-CHAIN ETHERNET CONNECTION
CAUTION
IT IS NOT ALLOWED TO CREATE LOOPS WITH ETHERNET CABLES
Using the daisy-chain connection it is not necessary to use switches to connect the devices.
The following examples show the correct connections.
There must be no loops in the Ethernet cabling, otherwise the communication will not work. The modules and switches must be connected eliminating any loops. The following examples show the incorrect connections.
The LAN fault-bypass function allows you to keep the connection between the two Ethernet ports of the device ON, in the event of a power failure. If a device turns off, the chain is not interrupted and the devices downstream of the switched-off one will still be accessible. This function has a limited duration: the connection remains active for a few days, typically 4. The fault-bypass function requires that the sum of the lengths of the two cables connected to the switched off module is less than 100m.
ETHERNET CONNECTION RULES
For the Ethernet cabling between the devices, the use of the unshielded CAT5 or CAT5e cable is required.
