5.7 Expansion Module MAC00-FD4
5.7.24 Connecting MAC00-FD4 to the DeviceNet-bus
Before you connect the MAC00-FD4 to the DeviceNet-bus make sure that the Baud-
rate, the Node-ID and the termination is setup to the desired values.
On the DeviceNet bus it is possible to have a transmission speed (Baud-rate) of maxi-
mum 500 Kbit/s and a minimum of 125 Kbit/s. The Baud-rate depends on the cable
length, and the wires cross-section. The table below have some recommendations for
networks with less than 64 nodes. Recommended bus cable cross-section are according
to CiA®:

The bus wires may be routed in parallel, twisted and/or shielded, depending on EMC re-
quirements. The layout of the wiring should be as close as possible to a single line struc-
ture, in order to minimize reflections. The cable stubs for connection of the bus node
shall be as short as possible, especially at high bit rates. The cable shielding in the house
shall have a large contact area. For a drop cable a wire cross-section of 0.25 to 0.34 mm²
would be an appropriate choice in many cases. In
showing various JVL standard cables. All the JVL cables are twisted and shielded.
For bus lenghts greater than 500m, a bridge or repeater device is recommended.
Galvanic isolation between the bus nodes is optional. In the MAC00-FD4 modules the
galvanic isolation is integrated to obtain best possible immunity against noise and differ-
ences in the voltage potential between the nodes.
