10.5 Connection to Ethernet Bridge and / or Additional VC-18xx
There is a 5-pin DIN-rail bus connection on the back of the enclosure that can be used to transfer a
power supply or signals to nearby modules of type VC-18xx:
-
VC-1803/04 Ethernet-Bridge and / or
-
other VIBROCONTROL 18xx vibration monitors.
The DIN-rail bus module is connected with spring contacts on five small PCBs to the back of the
PCB in the enclosure of the VIBROCONTROL 18xx.
The DIN-rail bus module can easily be removed by carefully pulling the DIN-rail bus module down
in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the VIBROCONTROL 18xx enclosure. It can be mounted
in the same way.
NOTE!
Make certain when placing the modules on the DIN-rail that 23 mm of free space (the width of
one module) is left on at least one side for each monitor of type VC-1850, VC-1860, or VC-
1870!
Preparation
•
In order to make the electrical connection, it is best to first disconnect the
Phoenix connectors from the VC-18xx modules.
•
Operate the clip using a slotted screwdriver in order to remove the VC-18xx modules
from the DIN-rail.
•
The numbering on the Phoenix connectors must be observed when connecting
the VC-18xx devices later.
•
Configure the wiring with the Phoenix connectors accordingly. Carefully apply
the cable shields to the threaded cable connectors.
•
Connect the modules using the lower "Link-Concept" connection.
