WARNING! As the inputs pictured above are not insulated according to IEC 60664, 
the connection of the motor temperature sensor requires double or reinforced 
insulation between motor live parts and the sensor. If the assembly does not fulfil the 
requirement,
• the I/O board terminals must be protected against contact and must not be 
connected to other equipment
or
• the temperature sensor must be isolated from the I/O terminals.
Drive-to-drive link (XD2D)
The drive-to-drive link is a daisy-chained RS-485 transmission line that allows basic 
master/follower communication with one master drive and multiple followers.
Termination activation jumper T (see section Jumpers above) next to this terminal 
block must be set to the ON position on the drives at the ends of the drive-to-drive 
link. On intermediate drives, the jumper must be set to the OFF position.
Shielded twisted-pair cable (~100 ohm, for example PROFIBUS-compatible cable) 
must be used for the wiring. For best immunity, high quality cable is recommended. 
The cable should be kept as short as possible; the maximum length of the link is 50 
meters (164 ft). Unnecessary loops and running the cable near power cables (such 
as motor cables) must be avoided. The cable shields must to be grounded to the 
control cable clamp plate on the drive as shown on page 92.
The following diagram shows the wiring of the drive-to-drive link.
