Operating elements, connections
7.3.1
FO connections X10 (TX) and X11 (RX)
X11 (RX): FO receiving interface
X10 (TX): FO sending interface
On the ibaPDA system, a FO input/output card of the ibaFOB-D or ibaFOB-Dexp type
has to be installed for receiving and sending the data.
Maximum distance of fiber optic connections
The maximum distance of fiber optic connections between 2 devices depends on various
influencing factors. This includes, for example, the specification of the fiber (e.g.
62.5/125
μ
m, 50/125
μ
m, etc.), or the attenuation of other components in the fiber optic
cable plant such as couplers or patch panels.
However, the maximum distance can be estimated on the basis of the output power of
the transmitting interface (TX) or the sensitivity of the receiving interface (RX). A model
calculation can be found in chapter 11.4.
The specification of the transmitter's output power and the receiver's sensitivity of the
fiber optic components installed in the device can be found in chapter "Technical data"
11.1 under "ibaNet interface".
7.3.2
Voltage supply X14
The ibaBM-PN device has to be operated with an external DC voltage 24 V (unregulat-
ed) with a maximum current consumption of 400 mA. The operating voltage should be
supplied using the 2-pin Phoenix screw connector included in delivery.
7.3.3
Push button S10
With the S10 push button, all settings can be reset to the factory settings:
1.
Switch off the device.
2.
Switch on the device with the push button S10 keeping pushed.
3.
Keep the push button S10 pushed until the green LED "Run" of the operating status
display starts blinking rapidly. Now, release the push button.
4.
When the green LED "Run" stops blinking rapidly, the factory settings have been
applied. The device is immediately ready for operation and does not need to be
switched off and on again.
Note
The device must not be switched off during this procedure.
