Processor Unit
9 english
For BIS V-6106-034-C00_, read/write heads in the BIS VM-3 _ _, BIS VL-3 _ _, and BIS VU-3 _ _
series can be connected to terminals H1...H4. BIS V-6106-034-C10_ also supports read/write
heads in the BIS C-3 _ _ series (Adapter required).
Note
Read/write heads in the BIS VU-3 _ _ series are only supported with a device software
version of 3.0 or higher. Should the occasion arise, an update will be required.
Note
Device software as well as manuals with detailed information about the read/write
heads used are available at www.balluff.com .
BIS V processor units are available in different variants with respect to the supported read/write
heads. The following table shows the differences.

Note
Only shielded cables are to be used for connecting read/write heads!
An adapter cable is required for connecting read/write heads in the BIS C-3_ _ series.
The maximum cable length for read/write heads in the BIS VM-3 _ _, BIS VL-3 _ _,
and BIS VU-3 _ _ series is 50 m. For the BIS C-3 _ _ series, the cable length is set at
1 m, 5 m, or 10 m plus the adapter depending on the design of the system.

Ethernet/IP is an industrial networking standard. The IP in Ethernet/IP stands for "Industrial
Protocol". Ethernet/IP uses the "Common Industrial Protocol" (CIP) open communication
protocol at the application tier (in accordance with ISO/OSI reference model).
Ethernet/IP is supported by the "Open DeviceNet Vendor Association" (ODVA) network
organization.
Ethernet/IP can operate in a ring topology (Device Level Ring). It is strongly recommended to
configure the device speed with auto-negotiation for all devices within the ring:
CIP Ethernet Link object (0xF6) --> Instance 1 and 2 --> Attributes 1 and 6.
Attribute 1 shows the current status of the port and attribute 6 contains the configuration of the
port (AutoNeg or 100MBit-FD etc.). It is important that attribute 6 is configured to
AutoNegotiation on all ports.
