4.11 Recommended cables
Connections type Recommended cable
Digital In/out Minimum cross-section 0,25mm
2
(AWG-23)
Analog In/out
Cross-section 0,25mm
2
(AWG-23)- shielded or pair of signal-to-
mass wires twisted together along the entire length
Encoder signals Cross-section 0,25mm
2
(AWG-23) - shielded - twisted. Eventual-
(e.g. Out Analog Ch0 /GND Ch0) always use twisted pair of ca-
bles.
Ethernet communication wire Standard network cable, shielded - FTP, cat. 6.
Power supply Min. cross-over 0,5mm
2
(AWG-20)
CAN expansion modules If modules are installed on the same DIN rail, right next to the
controller, you can use DB9 plugs clamped on a 9 wire tape. If
module is installed farther then you should use so-called
shielded twisted pair. (FTP or STP).
During mechanical and electrical montage – particular caution is advised. Poorly tightened cable
may cause many troubles, it is also very difficult to find such a defect during launching/using the
system.
