SICK RFU63 Series - Wiring data interfaces

Protecting the supply cables
To ensure protection against short-circuits and overload in the customer-supplied
cables, the wire cross-sections used must be selected and protected in accordance
with national regulations.
The following standards must be observed in Germany:
•
DIN VDE 0100 (Part 430)
•
DIN VDE 0298 (Part 4) or DIN VDE 0891 (Part 1)
Wiring without SICK connection module
Supply voltage 12V to 30V DC: when operating the device with the SICK supply cable
part no. 6048319 (2x 2.5 mm
2
, length 10m) protect the device with a separate 2.5A
slow-blow fuse.
►
Install the fuse in the supply circuit at the start of the supply cable.
Wiring with SICK connection module
Supply the voltage to the device via a connection module:
Connection module Interface Reference
CDB650-204 Supply voltage see "Connecting supply voltage
for the device in CDB650-204",
page 102
CDM420-0006 Supply voltage see "Connecting supply volt‐
age for the device in
CDM420-0006", page 115
If the supply voltage is connected via a connection module, observe the respective
operating instructions of the module used.
6.7 Wiring data interfaces
Wiring the Ethernet interface
1. Connect the device to the Ethernet interface of the computer via an adapter cable.
2. Set up communication via SOPAS ET configuration software.
NOTE
The Ethernet interface of the device has an Auto-MDIX function. This automatically
adjusts the transmission speed as well as any necessary crossover connections.
Wiring serial data interfaces
The maximum data transmission rate for the serial interface depends on the length of
cable and on the type of interface. Observe the following recommendations:
