Termination of sensor signals
The following section describes how to connect the various sensors and inputs to the VCM-3.
The various types of channel inputs must have been enabled in the VCM-3 monitoring template in
order to be used. If channel groups are not supported, please do not connect. A specific or custom
“Standard (Master) Monitoring Template” is required for some of the sensors or input channels in
order to enable this functionality. Configuration of VCM-3 monitoring template is not a part of this
instruction.
NOTE!
Supported channels and sensor types of your “Standard (Master) Monitoring Template”
can be checked directly during configuration with the editor software application. Further
information which input signals/channels are supported by a
specific “Standard (Master)
Monitoring Templates” can be found in the document VCM-3 „Product specifications
and ordering information“.
IMPORTANT NOTE!
The shield connections of the cables are not shown on the connection drawings. The
shield must be connected to ground as described below.
