3.2 Wiring in accordance with EMC requirements
Undesired faults can occur on the field bus and the analog inputs due to
electromagnetic interference. This can be minimized beforehand by the
implementation of suitable EMC measures. These include:
• EMC-conformant system configuration,
• Routing all analog input and field bus cables in a way that meets EMC
requirements
• Measures designed to reduce potential differences
• The correct installation of the field bus system
(cable, connection of the bus connectors, etc.),
• Using shielding

3.3 LED indicators
Status LEDs are used to indicate the status of all XN300 slice modules.
These LEDs have various colors in order to make it possible to easily deter-
mine which function they represent:
• Green: input
• Yellow: output
• Red: fault
