Hardware Setup
Caution
Always read this chapter before installing the module!
Caution
Hot surface! The surface of the housing can become hot during operation. If the device is used in high ambient temperatures, always let the device cool down before touching it.
Caution
Working on energized devices can damage the equipment! Always turn off the power supply before working on the device.
Space Requirements
The following drawings show the space requirements when installing the G-series modules. The spacing creates space for ventilation, and prevents conducted electromagnetic interference from influencing the operation. Installation position is valid vertical and horizontal. The drawings are illustrative and may be out of proportion.
Caution
NOT following the space requirements may result in damaging the product.
Mount Module to DIN Rail
The following chapters describe how to mount the module to the DIN rail.
Caution
The module must be fixed to the DIN rail with the locking levers.

Field Power and Data Pins
Communication between the G-series network adapter and the expansion module, as well as system / field power supply of the bus modules is carried out via the internal bus. It is comprised of 2 Field Power Pins and 6 Data Pins.
Warning
Do not touch the data and field power pins! Touching can result in soiling and damage by ESD noise.
