Electrical Connection – continued – Attention Wire equipment in series. Startype wiring is not permitted. Interlink screens of control cables such that electrical continuity is ensured and connect them once to the central earthing point (CEP). If equipotential currents may occur, e.g.
The fourcore bus cable serves as power supply and data highway for highspeed data exchange. The CAN address (Node ID) can be set between 1 and 123. The equipment is configured at our works and ready for service with other GESTRA system components without having to set the node ID.
Basic Settings – continued – Factory setting The level switch features the following factory set default values: Relay with energizing delay switchpoint 1: 1s Baud rate: 250 kb/s Relay with energizing delay switchpoint 2: 1s Control equipment: 1 Relay with energizing delay switchpoint 3: 1s Node ID: 039 Relay with energizing delay switchpoint 4: 1s Control equipment: 2...
Detach the lower terminal strip 9 (Fig. 6) in order to change the code switch 8 settings. Attention We recommend that you commission the CAN bus equipment with their GESTRA default factory settings. Make sure that no node ID is used twice in the CAN bus network!
Commissioning Using the operating & display unit URB... If you use the operating unit URB... make all adjustments via its user interface. NRS 2-40 Apply power to the unit. GESTRA NRS 2-40 The four indicator LEDs flash rapidly. The LED “Power” lights up.

Malfunctions Fault-finding list for troubleshooting Device fails to work – indication of malfunction Fault: In spite of correct wiring and commissioning of the equipment an interference signal is indicated. Remedy: The interference signal is caused by H. F. interferences coming from the installation. For interference suppression of the voltage supply we supply ferrite rings, stock code 147253.
Cut off power supply before mounting or removing the terminal strips or the housing cover. NRS 2-40 Faulty installation and/or configuration of CAN bus components, excessive temperatures in the devices, defective electronic component parts or electromagnetic interferences of the supply system can result in system malfunctions.
System Malfunctions – continued – Danger The terminal strip of the equipment is live during operation. This presents the danger of electric shock. Cut off power supply before mounting or removing the terminal strips or the housing cover. Systematic malfunction analysis The sources of malfunctions occurring in CAN bus systems operating with several busbased stations must be analysed systematically since faulty components or incorrect settings can give rise to nega tive interactions with intact bus devices in the CAN bus system.
– continued – System malfunction 1 LEDs flashing slowly GESTRA The four indicator LEDs flash slowly. NRS 2-40 High/low-level alarm Test Fault: The max. admissible temperature in the electrode terminal box is exceeded. Remedy: Insulate electrode flange to protect the equipment against heat radiation.
System Malfunctions – continued – System malfunction 3 LED “Bus status” flashes slowly. GESTRA NRS 2-40 Test LED flashing slowly Fault: Malfunction in CAN bus. Abhilfe: Restart system. LED “Bus status” flashes slowly. GESTRA High/low-level alarm NRS 2-40 Test LED flashing slowly Fault: Data transfer in CAN bus interrupted.
System Malfunctions – continued – System malfunction 4 LED “Power” flashes slowly. GESTRA NRS 2-40 Test LED flashing slowly Fault: The power supply unit (PSU) is overloaded and may be misused for other components. Remedy: Check load of power supply unit. Be sure to use the PSU only for the voltage supply of busbased network components.
