2.2.3 Mounting the Field Link
You typically mount the Field Link on a pipe or mast using the clamps
provided in the kit (see
Figure 2-3
).
1.
Attach the L-shaped bracket to the pipe or mast.
•
For
pipe
installations, insert the larger U-bolt around the 2-in.
pipe, through the L-shaped bracket, and through the washer plate
(see the left side of
Figure 2-3
). Use a ½-in. socket-head wrench
to secure the nuts to the U-bolt.
•
For
mast
installations, bolt the L-shaped bracket securely to the
mast (see the right side of
Figure 2-3
).
2.
Insert the smaller U-bolt around the base of the Field Link and
through the L-shaped bracket.
3.
Use a ½-in. socket-head wrench to fasten the nuts to the U-bolt.

2.3 Wiring the Module and Field Link
This section assumes you have already installed the IEC 62591 module
in the ControlWave Micro
and
installed the Field Link in its permanent
field location.
Communications between the IEC 62591 module and the Field Link
occur through an RS-485 connection. Remote Automation Solutions
recommends that you use shielded, twisted-pair cable for I/O signal
wiring. The twisted-pair minimizes signal errors caused by electro-
magnetic interference (EMI), Radio Frequency Interference (RFI), and
transients. The removable terminal blocks on the module accept wire
sizes up to 14 AWG.
