Connector for T-branch Tap connection of a
node (with connector attachment screws)
OMRON
Align the cable connector with the socket on the T-branch Tap as shown in the
following diagram and fully insert the connector into the socket. Tighten the set
screws to secure the connection. Tighten the screws to a torque of between 0.25
and 0.3 N

4-3-4 Connecting Terminating Resistors
Terminating Resistors must be connected at each end of the trunk line. This sec-
tion shows how to connect the Terminating Resistors.
A terminating resistor is included with the T-branch Tap. Clip the leads on the
resistor to about 3 mm and insert it into the T-branch Tap as shown in the follow-
ing diagram. The resistor can face in either direction.
A terminating resistor is built into the Terminal-block Terminating Resistor. To
connect the cable to the Terminating Resistor, attach standard M3 crimp termi-
nals to the signal wires and securely screw the terminals to the Terminal-block
Terminating Resistor.

Note To avoid damaging the cable or breaking wires, don’t pull on the cable or bend it
too sharply when connecting it to the terminal block. Also, never put heavy ob-
jects on top of the cable.
