Connecting up the terminating resistor for PROFIBUS DP
Terminate a PROFIBUS DP segment with its characteristic impedance at its two ends, i.e. at
the first and at the last station of the segment. A terminating resistor is available for this
purpose. It can be screwed onto the unused PROFIBUS interface of the CM.
The following figure shows a typical application for a terminating resistor.
