Please also note the following:
•
Direct connection between PLC and QuickConnect slave with crossover cable
•
Slave-to-slave connection using patch cable
•
For setting up the topology, only the linear topology with a maximum of 20 modules
on the tool side is permitted.
•
If needed, only one managed switch may be used between the PLC and Ethernet/IP
slave.
•
To trigger the QuickConnect sequence, an electrical lock signal is required that
reads in the supply voltage of the QuickConnect slaves via the controller.
