4.1 Connecting a Programming Device / PC to a C7
This chapter explains the ways in which you can connect a programming
device or PC to the C7 via the multipoint interface.
For information about the possible cable lengths, refer to Section 3.3.
You can connect a programming device or PC to the MPI port of the C7
using a preassembled PG cable.
As an alternative, you can use PROFIBUS LAN cable and bus connectors to
make your own connecting cable (see Section 3.5 ).
Figure 4-1 shows the components for connecting a programming device/PC
to a C7.
