11.4 Connecting the Drives
The standard PROFIBUS cable and connectors can be used to connect the CPU
to the MicroMaster drive. See Network Connectors in Chapter 7 for more
information. See Figure 11-8 for the proper cable bias and termination of the
interconnecting cable.
!
Caution
Interconnecting equipment with different reference potentials can cause unwanted
currents to flow through the interconnecting cable.
These unwanted currents can cause communication errors or can damage
equipment.
Be sure all equipment that you are about to connect with a communication cable
either shares a common circuit reference or is isolated to prevent unwanted
current flows. See “Grounding and Circuit Reference Point for Using Isolated
Circuits” in Section 2.3.
The shield must be tied to chassis ground or terminal 1 on the 9-pin connector. It
is recommended that you tie terminal 2-0V on the MicroMaster drive to chassis
ground.
