Using shielded cables
The following options are available for the shield connection when using shielded cables:
● A shield connection using a shielding bus supplied separately
● Shield connection via the M3 screw-on shield connecting element on the housing of the
SIMOTION D410-2
Using a shielding bus
If a shielding bus is used, proceed as follows:
1. Attach the cable shield to a grounded shielding bus after the cable entry point in the cabinet.
Strip the insulation off the cable first.
2. Continue routing the shielded cable as far as the module, but do not make a connection to
the shield there.
Using a shield connection on the SIMOTION D410-2
1. Unscrew the holding clamp of the M3 shield connection (Torx screwdriver T10) at the top
of the SIMOTION D410-2 until there is a space below the clamp.
2. Insert the cable. The cable shield must first be exposed.
3. Tighten the fixing bracket so that the cable shield and cable are pressed against the shield
connection (tightening torque 0.8 Nm).
The following figure shows how to connect the cable shield.
