Bus connector: Plugging it into module
1. Plug the wired bus connector into the module.
2. Screw-tighten the bus connector on the module.
3. If the bus connector is located at the beginning or end of a segment, you must enable the
terminating resistor (switch setting "ON"; see the following figure).
Note
6ES7 972-0BA30-0XA0 bus connectors are not equipped with a terminating resistor. You
cannot insert this type of bus connector at the beginning or end of a segment.
Please make sure during startup and normal operation that power is always supplied to
nodes where the terminating resistor is active.
