The PC Adapter USB A2 and the S7/M7/C7 system each represent a network node.
In networks made up of 2 nodes (PC Adapter USB A2 and S7/M7/C7 system), the PC
Adapter USB A2 is operated directly on the socket of the S7/M7/C7 system.
In networks made up of more than 2 nodes, the PC Adapter USB A2 is connected to the
"PG socket" of a PROFIBUS connector (SINEC L2 bus connector). This does not require
any change to the setting of the terminating resistors.
