Bit Slave Units are sold with Standard or Sheathed Flat Cable already con-
nected. Bit Slaves cannot be used, however, at a baud rate of 4 Mbps (no
branch lines).
External I/O (sensors or actuators) connected to Bit Slaves using e-CON con-
nectors or clamp terminals are supplied power through the Flat Cable. No
separate wiring is required for I/O power supply.
No special tools are required for connections because industry standard e-
CON connectors are used. Electrical cables do not need to be stripped and
are simply inserted with pliers. When using e-CON connectors, there is no
need to prepare special tools for wiring, and connectors from different makers
can be used interchangeably.
MIL connectors, widely used in the electronic components and semiconductor
industries, help reduce wiring requirements.
There is no need to tighten the screws because these Units use screw-less
clamp terminal blocks. Connections are made simply by inserting the pin ter-
minals. Wiring can be completed in one step.
