19.4. Wiring Types
Retail Solutions specifies Belden #8761 shielded
twisted pair cables for use as MODBUS wiring (or
Belden #82761 and Belden #88761 for plenum instal-
lations).
For MODBUS network wiring of XEV series of
controllers to E2, Belden #8641 (P/N 135-8641) is the
recommended wire type to use.
If the recommended cable is not available in your
area, be sure the wiring meets or exceeds the follow-
ing specs:
Shielded?
Conductor Type
Gauge
Capacitance between
signal wires
Capacitance between
signal and shield
Maximum Length
Nominal Impedance
The maximum distance between an XEV22 con-
troller and a valve must not exceed 10 meters (32
feet). Use only shielded cables with a cross section
greater than or equal to 0.325 mm

19.5. MODBUS Termination
Blocks
Because the XEV22D device has no on-board
means of termination, use the MODBUS termination
block (P/N 535-2711) for termination that can be
wired to the end of the cable segment using the three-
pin connector. Wire the two signal wires to the out-
side terminals, and connect the shield to pin 16, keep-
ing the exposed shield wire length as short as possible
(3 inches ideal maximum length).
