Installation

Bus terminating resistors

The first and last station in a bus segment must be connected

 

to the bus with the bus terminating resistor switched on. The

 

bus terminating resistor is switched externally. This external

 

switch function can either be implemented as a separate bus

 

terminating resistor or with a special Sub-D plug with an

 

integrated bus termination.

 

Eaton's PROFIBUS-DP data plug enables both bus

 

terminating resistors to be switched on and off.

 

 

EMC wiring

Electromagnetic interference may have adverse effects on the

 

communication fieldbus. This can be minimized in advance by

 

taking suitable EMC measures. These include:

 

• System design in accordance with EMC requirements,

 

• EMC cabling and

 

• Measures that prevent the occurrence of large potential

 

differences,

 

• Correct installation of the PROFIBUS system (cable,

 

connection of bus connector,...).

 

The effects of electromagnetic interference can be

 

significantly reduced by fitting the shield. The following two

 

figures illustrate how to fit the shield.
