General cabling instructions

•
Arrange the bus cables as far away from the motor cables as
possible.
•
Avoid parallel runs.
•
Use bushings at cable entries.
Connecting the adapter module to the BACnet/IP
network
The network cable can be CAT5 or higher, and type unshielded
twisted pair (UTP), foiled twisted pair (FTP) or shielded twisted
pair (STP).
When FTP or STP is used, the cable shield is connected to the
drive frame through a resistor-capacitor (RC) circuit.


Connection procedure

1. Connect the network cable to the RJ-45 connector (X1) on the
adapter module.
2. If you want to create a daisy chain with FBIP-21 adapter
modules, connect the X2 connector of the first adapter module
to X1 on the next adapter module, and so on. See BACnet/IP
network topology Example 2 on page 18.
