Powerlink interface of the weighing instrument can be done via hub switch or serial bus over two Powerlink
port.
1. Serial bus connection of instruments. You may connect instruments serial to your Powerlink bus
via two ports.
2. Star connection. If you connect the instrument to your PLC via hub switch, you can use P1 or P2
port on the instrument. You may change the port if there is any malfunction on port in usage.
The Powerlink interface is 100Mbit and half duplex. XDD file for two port Powerlink is available on
