•
Make sure that you comply with the permissible optical budget (see Optical Interface, Page 41).
•
Consider the fiber-optic cable types and ranges (see Optical Interface, Page 41).
•
Transmitting diodes are identified with Tx.
•
Receiving diodes are identified with Rx.
NOTE
When routing fiber-optic cables, consider the prescribed bending radius.
NOTE
After connecting to the device, tighten the screws on the D-sub plug connector.
Connection to the RS232 Interface
When connecting to the RS232 interface, the fiber-optic transmission is switched to inactive and communica-
tion takes place serially. Siemens recommends the 7XV5100-4 serial cable for the connection.
NOTE
If you use a different connecting cable, make sure that pins 7 and 8 are bridged. The connector pins 1 and
4 of the RS232 interface X1 must not be used.
Switch Positions
All the settings of the binary-signal transmitter can be made from outside on the DIP switches. You do not
need to open the housing for this.
Exception: Switching-threshold setting (see chapter 2.3 RS232 Interface and DIP Switches). You can find a
description of the settings for a 2-wire application example in chapter 2.6 Baud Rates and Data Formats.
