Connecting the field bus

Field bus cable

Note
Faulty installation and high transmission rates may cause
data transmission errors as a result of signal reflections
and attenuations.
Transmission errors can be caused by:

– missing or incorrect terminating resistor

– incorrect screened connection

– branches

– transmission over large distances

– inappropriate cables

Observe the cable specification! For information on the
cable type refer to the manual for your controller or to CIA
specification DS 102.

Note
If the MTR-DCI is fitted onto the moving part of a machine,
the field bus cable on the moving part must be provided
with strain relief. Please observe also the relevant regula-
tions in EN 60204 part 1.

Use a twisted-pair, screened 4-wire cable as fieldbus cable.

If you are using the Festo field bus plug, a cable diameter of
5 ... 8 or 7 ... 10 mm is permitted.

Bus length

Exact specifications on the bus length can be found in the
next section and in the manuals for your control system.
