Addressing plug
The addressing plug is necessary to enable the hardware-
based allocation of the PROFIBUS DP address to a basic unit
without a PC/PD.
Analog module (AM)
The analog module offers the option of extending BU2 by
adding optional analog inputs and outputs (0/4 mA - 20 mA).
This makes it possible to measure and monitor any arbitrary
process variables which can be mapped onto a 0/4 mA to 20
mA signal. The automation system has free access to the
measured process variables.
ATE X
This is abbreviated from the French "Atmosphère explosible"
(explosive atmospheres).
ATEX is used as a synonym for both EC directives on
explosion protection, specifically the ATEX equipment
directive 94/9/EC and the ATEX workplace directive 1999/92/
EC.
Basic unit (BU)
The basic units are the fundamental components of the
SIMOCODE pro system. Basic units are always necessary
when using SIMOCODE pro. They have the same enclosure
width of 45 mm and are equipped with removable terminals.
Basic unit 1 is the fundamental component of the
SIMOCODE pro C device series. It contains the important
motor control functions and motor protection functions.
Basic unit 2 is the fundamental component of the
SIMOCODE pro V device series. It contains all functions and
fulfills all requirements for motor protection, motor control,
diagnostics and monitoring.
