Wiring To The Connector, X2A, X2B - Panasonic MINAS A6N Series Operating Instructions Manual

7. Wiring to the Connector, X2A and X2B
Connecting to Communicatino Cable
Tips on Wiring
(1) Be sure to use shielded twisted pair (STP) compatible with CAT5e or higher category.
• If both ends of the shield are not grounded, EMC performance will degrade.
• When installing connector plug on both ends of shielded cable, positively connect the
shield to the metallic plug shell.
• For colors of wire and matching connector pins, refer to TIA/E1A568B (see figure below).
• Pins 3 and 6 are for signal wire.
• Connect wire to 3 pin pairs on the connector: 1–2, 4–5 and 7–8.
• When using 2-pair wire in place of 4-pair wire, use pins 1–2 and 3–6 and leave pins 4–5
and 7–8 on connector unconnected.
(2) Legth of communication cable
ａ . Between 2 nodes: max. 100 m
b. Total length of cables between all nodes in the communication loop: max. 200 m
• Both requirements should be met.
• If the requirement b above cannot be met, consult with us.
Because specifications such as flexural characteristic, temperature range and insulation
material differ from manufacturer to manufacturer, select the cable best suitable for your
application.
Select the cable for movable application according to your operating condition.

Conifiguration
Master
Slave
Node address is the ID (MAC-ID) used to identify the slave on the network, and set up with
the rotary switch (RSW) on the front panel.
The details of wiring, the node address setting procedure, refer to Reference Specification
of the upper controller.
Remarks
• X1 to X7 are used for the secondary circuit. To connect these terminals to the primary power
supply (particularly, the 24 VDC power supply for brake), insulation is required.
Do not connect these terminals to the same power supply.
