Feeding via a common cable
The supply voltage for the electronic components and the sensors is fed to the first
ET 200X and looped through to the downstream ET 200Xs via the same cable as
PROFIBUS-DP.

Looping through via a common cable
The supply voltage for the electronic components/sensors and PROFIBUS-DP are
fed to the first ET 200X via two separate cables. They are looped through to the
downstream ET 200Xs via a common cable.
