GROUNDING CABLE SHIELD
4.1
Grounding by clamping the cable to the converter frame (recommended)
This manner of grounding is the most effective and especially recommended when the distances
between the devices are relatively short or if the device is the last device on the net.
Note: Normally, the option board has already been installed in slot D or slot E of the control board. It
is not necessary to detach the whole board for the grounding of the bus cable shield. Just detach the
terminal block.
1
Strip about 5 cm of the cable and cut off the grey cable shield.
Remember to do this for both bus cables (except for the last device). See pictures below.
2
Leave no more than 1 cm of the cable outside the terminal block and strip the data cables
at about 0.5 cm to fit in the terminals. See pictures below.
Note: Do this for both bus cables.
