Grounding Cable Shield
Grounding by Clamping the Cable to the Converter Frame (Recommended)
This manner of grounding is the most effective and especially recommended when the
distances between the devices are relatively short or if the device is the last device on the net.
Note:
Normally, the option board has already been installed in slot D or slot E of the control
board. It is not necessary to detach the whole board for the grounding of the bus cable
shield. Just detach the terminal block.
1. Strip about 5 cm of the cable and cut off the gray cable shield. Remember to do this for
both bus cables (except for the last device). See
Figures 2-1
and
2-2
.
2. Leave no more than 1 cm of the cable outside the terminal block and strip the data
cables at about 0.5 cm to fit in the terminals. See pictures below.
Note:
Do this for both bus cables.
