● The communication module is mounted on the motor starter module as shown in Chapter
Installing the communication module (Page 99)
● You have set the PROFIBUS DP address on the DIP switch according to your
configuration. Further information: Setting the PROFIBUS DP address and terminating
resistor (Page 100)
● Screwdriver, (PZ 2; 2 Nm)
● Stripping tool for wiring the M12 and 7/8" cable connectors, if you are fabricating your
own cables.
● Prefabricated cable with M12 and 7/8" cable connectors The cables are available in
different lengths.
● If you are fabricating your own cable:
– M12: 2-core, shielded bus cable, and b-coded M12 cable connectors
– 7/8": 4-core cable with 7/8" cable connectors
Pin assignment of the M12 and 7/8" cable connectors
PROFIBUS connection (M12)
Coding (M12 B-coded)
M12-B
1 Power supply plus (5 V)
2 Data line A
3 Data reference potential (0 V)
4 Data line B
5 Functional ground (FE)
The voltage must not be looped through to the next plug connector using a cable.
The functional ground is to be connected via the M12 thread (because it has a larger surface
area than terminal 5).
