Mounting the connection module or fieldbus module
If the device is controlled via a CDB or CDM connection module or CDF fieldbus mod‐
ule, mount the module in the vicinity of the device .
NOTE
If the PC with the SOPAS ET configuration software accesses the Aux interface (RS-232;
57.6 kBd) of the device via the connection module or fieldbus module, do not locate
the connection module more than a 5 m cable length from the device.
1.
Mount the connection module or fieldbus module in the vicinity of the device.
2.
Mount the modules in such a way that the fieldbus module or open connection
module are accessible at all times.
NOTE
For detailed information on mounting and electrical installation, please refer to the
