W
ORKS
Bus I/O modules only.
Controller and I/O Modules on a Single Rail
►
Connect controller and I/O modules using the bridge
connectors.
This provides power supply and communication connection.
No further wiring is necessary.
Controller and I/O Modules on Several Rails in a
Single Cabinet
The rails of a controller system are connected in series.
►
Connect the rail ends as follows:
– Power supply
via power supply terminals 73, 74 or 77, 78
– Communication
via communication terminals 71, 72 or 75, 76

Maximum Power Cable Length
The maximum length for power supply cable per side is 3 m.
This also includes the connection cables between the rails,
the lengths of the modules, and the cable from the
transformer.
Panel Bus I/O Modules in Separate Rooms
In this scenario, communication and reference voltage
(24 V0) must be connected between the rooms.
►
Connect the last module of room 1 to the first module of
room 2:
– Reference voltage
via power supply terminals 74 or 78
terminals 73 and 77 must not be connected
– Communication
via communication terminals 71, 72 or 75, 76
