ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

Power supply and Modbus interface are available using the Seneca DIN rail bus, via the IDC10 rear connector, or 

the Z-PC-DINAL-17.5 accessory.

Z-PC-DINAL2-17.5 accessory use

If the Z-PC-DINAL2-17.5 accessory is used, signals 

can be sent via terminal boards. The illustration 

shows the meaning of the various terminals and DIP-

switch position (found in all supports for the DIN rail 

listed in Accessories) for the termination of the CAN 

network (not used for the Modbus network).

Power supply

Terminals 2 and 3 can be used to provide the module with power supply as an al-

ternative to the connection using the Z-PC-DINx bus. 

The upper limits must not 

be exceeded as this can seriously damage the module

. If the power supply 

source is not protected against overload, a safety fuse with a 2.5 max permissible 

value must be installed in the power supply line. A.

ModBus RS485

Connection for RS485 communication using the MODBUS master system as an 

alternative to the Z-PC-DINx bus.

 

N.B. The indication of the RS485 connection polarity is not standardised and in 

some devices may be inverted.
