Permitted number of communications processors in the PG/PC
The driver software supports a maximum of 1 CP 5711 per PG/PC.
Before you connect the communications processor to your PG/PC, note the following
information:
To connect the communications processor, use only the supplied USB cable or another USB
cable suitable for industrial use.
To achieve the guaranteed configuration limits with all protocols and at all bus transmission
speeds, you should use at least a USB 2.0 high-speed connector.
You should preferably use the USB connectors located at the back of the housing of your
PG/PC. The front USB connectors usually have a lower signal quality.
We recommend that you do not use any additional USB hubs.
Delete existing configurations before you disconnect the communications processor from
your PG/PC.
You must also log off the communications processor reliably before you disconnect the
communications processor from the PG/PC. Click the "Safely Remove Hardware" icon in the
taskbar notification area.
