AS-Interfaceinstallation
Calculated bus line length:
When designing the system, consider the length of the cable which is fed directly to the positioner for the
maximum bus line length (multi-pole cable and cable inside: 1.0 m).
Example calculation:
When using 62 positioner with multi-pole cable, the AS-Interface flat cable may still be maximum 38 m long.
100 m – 62 x 1.0 m = 38 m
If the calculated bus line length of 100 m is exceeded, a commercially available AS-Interface repeater can be
used.
Handling the ribbon cable terminal
The multi-pole cable features a ribbon cable terminal - with M12 plug-in connector branch circuit - for AS-Interface
flat cable. The ribbon cable terminal contacts the AS-Interface flat cable by means of penetration technology which
allows installation by "clipping in" the AS-Interface flat cable without cutting and without removing insulation.
