Bus connection
Important
Before installing
several
transducer electronics modules in a plant with a bus
system, please note the following:
Before
establishing a connection to the bus system, connect the transducer
electronics
individually to a PC to set different addresses.
The transducer electronics are supplied with an RS‐485 or CAN bus interface
(CANopen standard CiA DS301). The interface of the transducer electronics
relates to the GND, while the interfaces of the bus nodes must also relate to
the GND.
Use a shielded cable as the interface cable. The shield should always be con
nected to the ground potential at both ends.
Details of the procedure for setting up the transducer electronics and an expla
nation of the various settings, including for the interfaces, as well as the rele
vant commands, can be found in the online help of HBM's PanelX program,
which you can download free of charge from the HBM website:
→ Services & Support → Downloads → Firmware & Software → PanelX.
For the interfaces, read the sections relating to your interface in the chapter
headed "Communication via one of the interfaces".
