Fitting the terminating resistor

PLEASE NOTE
If a terminating resistor is used, one of the
RIO plugs on the last valve/installation termi-
nal of a RIO line is not assigned. Protection in
accordance with protection class IP65 as per
DIN 40050 is therefore no longer guaranteed.
For this reason a protective cap must be fitted
to the non-used bus plug.
A terminating resistor is required at both ends
of the RIO cable.
If the valve terminal/valve sensor terminal to be
connected is at the end of a RIO cable, a suit-
able terminating resistor must be fitted into the
socket of the incoming RIO cable. The non-as-
signed plug must then be covered with a protec-
tive cap.
