    Testing FO Transmission Paths A.2.1 Necessity of a Final Test The total attenuation of an FO transmission path, particularly the influence of splices, can only be estimated roughly during planning. As a result of inaccuracies when creating the splices and subjecting cables to excessive stress during installation, the actual attenuation may well be higher than the calculated values.
  • Page 248 Testing PROFIBUS Arrangement for Measuring Attenuation The arrangement for measuring attenuation consists of a light source and an optical meter. The light source is first connected to the receiver via a reference fiber. The optical power measured at the receiver is the reference value for a link without attenuation.

    A.2.3 Optical Time Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) If the attenuation measurement described above indicates that the total attenuation of the fiber-optic link is too high, the causes and the location of the problem must be established. In this case OTDR units are used (OTDR = Optical Time Domain Reflectometer).

Mechanical damage (cable break) or repeated electrical interference affecting these bus connections reduces the transmission capacity of the system.
  • Page 265: C.2 Electrical Safety

    Electrical Safety The signal levels on electric PROFIBUS cables are low voltage. Correctly installed and operated PROFIBUS LAN cables do not have dangerous electrical voltages. Remember, however, the following rules when installing the power supply for all components (nodes, bus components, etc.) that you want to connect to a PROFIBUS cable.
  • Page 266: C.3 Mechanical Protection Of Lan Cables

    Installing LAN Cables Mechanical Protection of LAN Cables Protection of Electrical and Optical LAN Cables Mechanical protection is required to protect LAN cables from breaks or mechanical damage. Note The guidelines for mechanical protection apply both to electrical and optical cables.
  • Page 267 Figure C-2 Interrupting the Conduit at an Expansion Joint Bus Terminal RS-485 The installation of electrical LAN cables in a protected area is supported by the use of the RS-485 bus terminal. This allows the attachment of DTEs and service and commissioning work on the DTEs without needing to move the actual LAN cable.
  • Page 268 Installing LAN Cables Install LAN cables separately To prevent accidental damage to LAN cables, they should be clearly visible and should be separate from all other wiring and cables. To improve EMC, it is often advisable to install the LAN cables in a separate cable channel or in conductive, metal tubes.
  • Page 269: C.4 Electromagnetic Compatibility Of Lan Cables

    The measures involved include the design, structure and correct connection of the LAN cable. The components and LAN cables for SIMATIC NET PROFIBUS meet the requirements of the European standards for devices used in an industrial environment. This is documented by the CE marking.
  • Page 270: C.4.2 Installation And Grounding Of Inactive Metal Parts

    Cable Shields Note the following points about cable shields: S Use SIMATIC NET PROFIBUS cables throughout your system. The shields of these cables have an adequate shield density to meet the legal requirements regarding noise emission and immunity.
  • Page 271 S The clamps must make good and large-area contact with the shield (see Figure C.3 ). S Contact SIMATIC NET PROFIBUS cables only using the braided copper shield and not the aluminum foil shield. The foil shield is connected to a plastic foil to increase tearing strength and is therefore non-conductive.
  • Page 272: C.4.4 Equipotential Bonding

    Installing LAN Cables S When removing the sheath of the cable, make sure that the braid shield of the cables is not damaged. S When selecting contact elements, remember that the cables for SIMATIC NET PROFIBUS have a braid shield outer diameter of approximately 6 mm. S To allow good contact between grounding elements, tin-plated or galvanically stabilized surfaces are ideal.
  • Page 273 How do you avoid potential differences? Potential differences must be reduced by installing bonding conductors so that the functions of the electronic components used are guaranteed. When and why is equipotential bonding necessary? The following reasons speak in favor of equipotential bonding: S Devices with a grounded interface can be damaged by potential differences.

  • Page 283: C.7 Installing Lan Cables

    Installing LAN Cables C.7.1 Instructions for Installing Electrical and Optical LAN cables General During installation, remember that LAN cables can only be subjected to a certain amount of mechanical strain. Cables can be damaged or even destroyed by too much tensile stress or pressure, by torsion or by bending them too sharply. The following instructions will help you to avoid damage when installing LAN cables.
  • Page 284 If the cable is liable to be subjected to torsional load (for example robot cables), use the “SIMATIC NET” flexible cable. This cable is described in Chapter 4 “SIMATIC NET PROFIBUS Cables”. Bending Radius To avoid damage within the LAN cables, they must at no time be bent more sharply than the minimum bending radius.
  • Page 285 Avoid Loops When laying LAN cables, roll them tangentially from the cable drum or use appropriate rotary tables. This prevents loops forming and resulting in kinks and torsion. Installing other Cables Remember that LAN cables must not be subjected to excessive strain and stress when installed.

  • Page 447: Network Topology

    Network Topology Optical Bus The OBT is operated in conjunction with other SIMATIC devices, for example the IM 153-2 FO or IM 467 FO on the optical PROFIBUS DP in the form of an optical bus. Individual PROFIBUS DP nodes with an RS-485 interface are connected to channel 1 of the OBT via a maximum 100 m long PROFIBUS cable with bus connectors fitted at both ends.
  • Page 448: Using Long Fiber Optic Sections

    Network Topology Using Long Fiber Optic Sections The maximum permitted length of PCF FO cables with the OBT is 300 m. If longer distances are required with fiber-optic cables, then other fiber-optic types such as graded glass fibers or monomode fibers are necessary and these can be used in a combination of OBT with OLM (Optical Link Module).
  • Page 449: Attaching Rs-485 Segments

    Attaching RS-485 Segments The OBT allows the attachment of a single PROFIBUS DP node. To attach RS-485 segments with more than one node, a further network component is available, the OLM 12M. The requirement for using the OLM 12M is that the PROFIBUS DP network is operated at a transmission rate of 187.5 Kbps, 500 Kbps, 1.5 Mbps or 12 Mbps.

  • Page 451: Installation And Startup

    Installation and Startup Note Use the PROFIBUS OBT only as described in this manual. Note Pay particular attention to all warnings and safety–related instructions. Note The PROFIBUS OBT must only be operated with a safety extra-low voltage (SELV) complying with IEC 950/ EN 60 950/ VDE 0805 with a maximum of +32 V (typically +24 V).
  • Page 452: Precedure For Installation

    Installation and Startup Note The RS-485 channel CH1 of the PROFIBUS OBT is electrically isolated from the 24V input. This isolation is required for correct functioning and is not a safety measure. Note Make sure that the PROFIBUS OBT is adequately grounded by connecting the rail or mounting plate to local ground with low resistance and low inductance.
  • Page 453: Installation

    Installation Installing the PROFIBUS OBT PROFIBUS OBT can be installed either on a 35 mm standard rail with a height of 15 mm in compliance with DIN EN 50 022 – 35 x 15 or directly on a level surface. S Select the installation location so that the climatic limit values listed in the technical specifications can be adhered to.
  • Page 454 Installation and Startup Installation on a Mounting Plate PROFIBUS OBTs have two holes drilled in them. This allows them to be installed on any flat surface, for example on the mounting plate of a cubicle. S Drill two holes in the mounting plate as shown in the drill template in Figure 5-2. S Secure the modules with machine screws (for example M3 x 75 and M3 x 55).
