Introduction 1.2 Description of the product Operator controls The bus terminal consists of the following elements and controls: ● 1 terminal block with 6 terminals for wires with a cross-sectional area of ≤ 1.5 mm With this terminal block you can connect the incoming and outgoing bus cable and, if necessary, Protective Earth (PE).
Page 9
Protective earth, connected to the cable shield D-sub male connector pinout The impedance of the PROFIBUS interface when receiving must be ≥ 10 kilohms (according to the EIA standard RS-485). The spur line must not be terminated. 12M bus terminal Siemens Distributor Operating Instructions, 07/2013, C79000-G8976-C333-01...

DTE. The DTE must therefore be turned on and the D-sub male connector inserted and secured by screws! Due to the necessary termination at the start and end of the segment, the DTE connected there must not be turned off. 12M bus terminal Siemens Distributor Operating Instructions, 07/2013, C79000-G8976-C333-01...
Page 18
Installation 2.2 Mounting and attaching the bus cable(s) Note The same wires (green or red) must always be connected to the same terminal A or B in all bus terminals (and with all bus connectors) and be uniform throughout the segment. Note The 12M bus terminal may only be plugged into a PROFIBUS interface when the power is off.
Ways of installing and grounding the 12M bus terminal Note The grounding bar and local ground must be connected together with Cu wire with an adequate cross-sectional area over the shortest distance possible. 12M bus terminal Siemens Distributor Operating Instructions, 07/2013, C79000-G8976-C333-01...
Page 20
Installation 2.3 Grounding measures Note The DIN rail must have a good conducting surface. Note If you mount the bus terminal on a wall, connect at least one PE terminal to local ground. This connection should be over the shortest possible distance. 12M bus terminal Operating Instructions, 07/2013, C79000-G8976-C333-01...
