Series Connection and Termination

In order to connect several Segment Protectors in series, loop the trunk line through the T-
connector.
For exchange or maintenance of a Segment Protector within a series connection, pull off the
respective T-connector without loosening the trunk lines. This way, the power supply of the
other Segment Protectors will remain unaffected.

To provide segment termination: Plug in the terminator (included in delivery) at the last T-
connector of the segment.

Note!
As wrong termination may cause communication problems, make sure that each trunk is
terminated with a terminator at each end of the trunk line (i.e., 2 terminators in total).
