Working Principle:
Encapsulates process data into fieldbus telegrams, responding to master polls and managing acyclic data transfers for parameterization and diagnostics.
Installation Requirements:
- Configure station address and baud rate via DIP switches or software.
- Use certified fieldbus cables with proper shielding.
Usage Precautions:
- Ensure unique station addresses across the entire network.
- Activate termination resistors only at the physical ends of the bus segment.
