4.2 MA 8-01 / MA 8-02 connection unit
The modular connection unit is an optional accessory when connecting a BPS 8 to an
RS 485 interface. The RS 485 interface, the switching input and the switching output are all
connected to the MA 8-01/MA 8-02. It also supplies voltage to the BPS 8. The MA 8-01/
MA 8-02 connection unit offers the following advantages over the installation of the BPS 8
as a stand-alone device:
• M12 socket for switching input and switching output
• M12 connector for RS 485 interface and voltage supply 24VDC
• M12 socket for connection of the BPS 8
