5.2 Sender connections
In the case of the MLG-2, the sender and receiver synchronize with each other electron‐
ically. This means that cabling is required between the sender and fieldbus module.
You must connect the Sync_A signal on the sender to Sync_A on the fieldbus module,
and Sync_B on the sender to Sync_B on the fieldbus module. You will find the Sync_A
and Sync_D signals at the POWER connection of the fieldbus module.
Sender connection: M12/5-pin, A-coded
