The twisted pair modem TC512 provides a connection between the CI520, CI522 and the CI526 communication interface and the Advant Fieldbus 100 twisted pair bus. It implements a transceiver/modem function for one bus. Figure 101 shows a TC512. If redundant cables shall be installed, two TC512 are required.The TC513 is a modem to change media between twisted pair and coaxial media. For the function of the bus TC513 is totally transparent. The coaxial and Twisted pair media are electrically isolated from each others in the modem. One TC513 is equivalent to 150 meter (500 ft.) cable which must be noticed when calculating total bus length. If redundant cables shall be installed, it requires two TC513.The TC514 is a modem to change media between twisted pair and optical fiber media. For the function of the bus, TC514 is totally transparent. One TC514 is equivalent to 150 meter (500 ft.) cable, which must be noticed when calculating total bus length. Protection class IP20.
Mounting/Demounting of Twisted Pair/Optical Fiber Modem TC514
The Twisted Pair/Optical Fiber Modem TC514 is mounted on a DIN-rail. The DINrail is mounted to a metal sheet in a cabinet or on an enclosure wall with fastening screws every 100 mm, to ensure a good chassis ground connection. The modem has a snap locking device that attaches it to the mounting rail. It is possible to mount the modem both vertically and horizontally. To mount the modem, place it on the top edge of the DIN-rail, release the rail latch with a flat bad screw driver and snap the bottom mechanism into place. When the unit is in place on the DIN-rail and in vertical position, take away the screw driver and the rail latch will fix the unit in position on the DIN-rail. Release the unit from the DIN-rail in a similar way Snapping the Modem to the DIN-rail makes contact by the Ground Clip Spring with the chassis.
Twisted Pair/Twisted Pair Modem TC5151
The TC515 is a modem to expand the length of a twisted pair media part. Each section of the twisted pair media between two modems may be up to 750 meter (2500 ft.). The two Twisted pair media are electrically isolated from each others in the modem. For the function of the bus TC515 is totally transparent. One TC515 is equivalent to 150 meter (500 ft.) cable, which must be noticed when calculating total bus length. Protection class IP20.The twisted pair modem TC516 is used to connect the CI522 bus coupler module to the Advant Fieldbus 100 twisted pair medium and is used when communication interface (CI522) redundancy is required. TC516 can also be used when single communication interfaces, CI520, CI522 and CI526, are used. If redundant cables shall be installed, two TC516 are required. Figure 107 shows a TC516.
