8 Operation
To operate an AS-i system a special AS-i power supply is required (e.g. AC1216).
The AS-i power supply supplies the yellow AS-i cable with energy and implements
a data decoupling to the voltage regulator of the power supply. Standard switched-
mode power supplies would consider the AS-i data signals as interference signals
and suppress them.
Disconnect the power supply before connecting the AS-i DP gateway.
The AS-i system is operated ungrounded. AS-i + and AS-i - are to be
symmetrical to the ground potential of the installation. Ensure a low-
resistance connection of the symmetry point of the AS-i power supply
(terminal "shield") to the ground of the installation.
