  • Page 29: Setup And Wiring

    4 Setup and wiring 4.1 EMC/safety/shielding The TB20 IO system complies with EU Directive 2004/108/EC (“Electromagnetic Compatibility”). One effective way to protect against disturbances caused by electromagnetic interference is to shield electric cables, wires, and components. When setting up the system and laying the necessary cables, make sure to fully comply with all standards, regulations, and rules regarding shielding (please also consult the relevant guidelines and documents published by the PROFIBUS User Organization).
  • Page 30: Front Connectors

    It is also possible, for example, to connect two 0.75 mm² wires to a single spring-type terminal, provided the maximum cross-sectional cable area of 1.5 mm² per terminal is not exceeded. The cables can be attached to the underside of the front connector with a cable tie. TB20 DeviceNet Coupler | Version 2 | 2017-05-29...
  • Page 31: Wiring The Coupler

    The coupler and the modules are grounded via the shield contact to the DIN rail. The DIN rail must be grounded. The surface of the DIN rail must be clean and conduct electricity well. TB20 DeviceNet Coupler | Version 2 | 2017-05-29...

    The “TB20 ToolBox” parameter configuration and diagnosis program can be used to calculate a system’s total current draw.
  • Page 35: Electronic Nameplate

    This information can be read in a number of ways, one of which is using the “TB20 ToolBox” configuration and diagnosis software. The modules’ electronic nameplates not only make it possible to prevent configuration errors (setup), but also make maintenance (servicing) easier.

  • Page 37: Configuration And Use

    The DeviceNet™ coupler uses an “Open Style” connector to connect to the DeviceNet™ network. Since the coupler uses its internal 24 VDC for network power, connecting 24 VDC to pin 1 (V+) is used only for network power detection failure.

  • Page 42: Simulation Mode

    To ensure that this does not lead to accidents or malfunctions in the physical system and the higher-level controllers, the TB20 terminal will remove itself from the bus system and TB20-ToolBox will show a message to this effect once the simulation starts.
  • Page 43: Firmware Updates

    The latest firmware files will be automatically installed after setting up TB20-ToolBox and will be available so that the TB20 coupler's operating system can be updated through a USB connection. The TB20-ToolBox program can be downloaded at any time from the Downloads area at www.helmholz.de.
