The redundant PROFIBUS lines are connected to the two terminals A and B. Termi-
nal M is provided for the non-redundant PROFIBUS line. All three PROFIBUS con-
nections A, B and M are designed uniformly with 9-pin Sub-D connectors (sockets).
The pin assignment conforms to the PROFIBUS standard. RLM 01 uses only pins
3+8 for data transfer and 6+5 for power supply to an external resistor combination for
bus termination. The following table shows the maximum assignment for PROFIBUS
usage.

If terminals A/B of RLM 01 are positioned at the beginning or end of a bus segment,
two terminals must be provided with one bus termination each (resistor combina-
tion). The same also applies for terminal M if it is located at the beginning or the end
of a PROFIBUS segment. It is preferable to use PROFIBUS terminals with an inte-
grated resistor combination that can be turned on and off. A short-circuit-proof
power supply to supply the resistors located in the connector is available on pins 5
(VP+) and 6 (DGND). The designation A/B in the following figure refers to the cables
in the PROFIBUS cable and not to the redundant PROFIBUS cables, which are also
named A/B.

Use only shielded PROFIBUS connectors of suitable design. The connectors should
preferably have a cable connection that is angled down at 35° and is no wider than
18 mm.
The power supply and alarm lines are connected directly to the terminals labelled 1
to 8. If it is necessary to replace the module, you need only remove the terminal
strips. The maximum of 8 cables remain connected. The functions of terminals 1... 8
are given in the following table.
