7.1.4 Strain relief
Attention: When you connect the PROFIBUS Tester 4, its weight can
place a high mechanical stress on the connectors and the bus
station. Ensure proper strain relief by using suitable supports, cable
ties, etc. When this is not possible, you need to select a different
connection point to avoid damage.

7.1.5 Test locations
The PROFIBUS Tester 4 can basically carry out tests anywhere on a physical
PROFIBUS segment. Please note that the use of repeaters creates separate
physical segments that each need to be measured individually.
For the best and most informative results, perform the tests at the beginning
and end of each physical segment. If these test results indicate problems that
cannot be clearly classified right away, you should carry out one or more
additional tests at the centre.
