Installation and Startup

Note

The RS-485 channel CH1 of the PROFIBUS OBT is electrically isolated from the 24V input. This isolation is required for correct functioning and is not a safety measure.

Note

Make sure that the PROFIBUS OBT is adequately grounded by connecting the rail or mounting plate to local ground with low resistance and low inductance.

Note

As the RS-485 cable, use only LAN cables approved for PROFIBUS.

Note

Do not open the OBT casing.
