3.1 General commissioning instructions
The signals received by analog modules are very small in comparison to
digital signals. In order to ensure that these modules work properly, it is
absolutely necessary to route all cables carefully:
• The DIN-rail must have a proper earth connection
• The cables used to connect to the analog signal sources must be as
short as possible and must not be routed parallel to digital signal cables.
• Analog signal cables must be screened.
• The screening must be terminated at a screening bus.
• Do not route the input cables parallel to load circuits.
• Suppressor circuit for all contactor coils (RC suppressors or flyback
diodes)

If possible, connect the earth bus to the control panel earth bus!
