2.3.19.2 Connection of EtherCAT-Coupler of type EK1100 for LAN cable
The EtherCAT-Coupler of type EK1100 is used for the EtherCAT signal transmission in an
Ethernet network (100BASE-TX). The EtherCAT-Coupler of type EK1100 connects a steel box
with distributed Peakanalyzer terminals of type ELXXXX via LAN to a central Peakanalyzer
base module.
Picture 16: View of EtherCAT-Coupler EK1100 for LAN-cable
A Peakanalyzer station that is distributed in the field consists of a coupler of type EK1100,
several EtherCAT terminals, an end cap and a power supply. The coupler transforms the
telegrams from the Ethernet-100BASE-TX to the E-Bus representation.
The connection to the central Peakanalyzer base module is done via the IN interface on the
coupler. The LAN cable must have the same label as the coupler input IN. The RJ45 socket
OUT below the IN socket can be used to optionally branch a further Peakanalyzer station. The
outgoing EtherCAT branch must be also labeled on the corresponding LAN cable. The
incoming and outgoing branches are also labeled on the coupler and the junction. The schema
of the labels is described in chapter 2.3.19.
The power supply terminal labeled with X5 has to be connected to a power supply source
according to chapter 2.3.1, 2.3.2 and 2.3.13.
