Maximum configuration of ASM 473 on an ET 200X with sample addressing
Depending on the PROFIBUS master, up to 126 ET 200X modules can be run on one
PROFIBUS branch.
Hardware configuration
The ASM 473 is integrated in the hardware configuration of the SIMATIC Manager by calling
Setup.exe in the directory daten\S7_OM on the
RFID Systems Software & Documentation
CD. Currently, the ASM 473 cannot be integrated in masters of other manufacturers.
Reader connection system
A write/read device always occupies the two M12 connection sockets X3 and X4 on the ASM
473. A prefabricated cable makes it easy to connect the write/read device. The standard
model of the connection cable is 2 m in length. Other lengths are available on request.
An SLG cable connector with screw-type terminals is available for users who want to make
their own cables. Cables and SLG cable connectors can be ordered from the MOBY catalog.
