AS Interface - Design
Model Calculated line length (includinginternalcabling)
Multi-pole, outer cable length approx. 15 cm 0.3 m
Multi-pole, outer cable length approx. 80 cm 1.0 m
Table 1: Calculated line length of the control head versions (cable length inside and outside)
Example calculation line length:
for multi-pole connection with approx. 15 cm outer cable length :

long.
If the calculated maximum line length of 100 m were to be exceeded, a commercially available AS interface
repeater may be used, as needed.

Observe the optional design "AS Interface with External Power Supply" to reduce the load on the AS
interfacebussegment!(seechapters“12.5” and “12.8”)
UsecablesaccordingtotheASinterfacespecication.
If other cables are used, the maximum cable length will change.
