In some industrialunits for Ethernet, the RJ45 contact’s shield is connected to the chassis via a capacitor, see1 in drawing above.
The operator panel’s Ethernet shield is directly

Check whether the other Ethernetunit has its shield directly grounded or grounded via a capacitor.
Note:
Inmanycases,connecting theshieldedEthernetcablingtothechassisatbothendsis inappropriate. Humo r groundingloopscanoccur. Unshielded cablingmayeven result infewercommunicationerrors.
A good solution may be to use a shielded Ethernet cable, but toconnect the shield at one end only.
One option isto break the shield, see 3 in drawingabove. A more elegantmethod is to expand the shielded Ethernet cabling with a piece of
unshielded Ethernetcable, see 4 in drawing above. You can ground the shield via an external 0.1 uF/250 V plastic capacitor, see 5 in
drawing above. This will connect theHF transients to the ground.

11.3 ToAchieveBetterEMCProtection

Initially,use the original cabling from BeijerElectronics primarily.
Use shielded cables for RS232 communication.
Use twisted pair andshielded cabling for RS422 and RS485.
Use the cabling intended for the bus type; Ethernet,Profibus, CC-Link,
CAN, Device Netetc.
Install and connect according to applicablespecifications for the relevant bus
standard.
Use shielded cabling forEthernet, preferably with foil + braided shield.
D-sub covers should be shielded, and the shield should be connected to the
cover 360° where the cable comes in.
Connect the shield at both ends.

With longer distances, thereis a risk that the ground potential may bedifferent. In that case, the shieldshould only be connected at one end. A good alternative is to connect the ot her end of the shield to the ground viaa 0.1 uF/250 V plastic capacitor. Both ends are then connected to the ground in terms of HF, but only connected to the ground at one end in terms of LF, thus avoidingthe 50 Hz grounding loops.

1.
Usean EMC cable gland or regular plastic cable gland, removethe outer jacket

and connect theshield to the installation plate with a360 ° metal cable clamp.
2.
Place the 24V DC and communications cabling in one cable trunk/cable duct and 230/380 V AC in another. If the cables need to be crossed, cross them at 90 ° only. Avoidcombining the cabling for stronger 24 V DC outputs with the communication cabling.
Ferritecores that are snappedonto the shielded cabling m ay remove minor disturbances. Large ferrite pieces that aresnapped onto unshielded cabling and where the wiresgo 2-4 times around the cores are approximately 5-25 timesmore efficient.

transfer distance and maximumtransfer speed.
0 V, the reference voltage forcommunication should be included in
the cabling. With two-way communication use two pairs; one pair for communication and one pairfor 0 V.
The shield must be grounded atone end. The other end is usually grounded,
but with longer d istances or whenthere is a difference in the ground potential, theshieldshouldbeconnectedtothegroundvia0.1uF/250Vplastic capacitor to prevent ground currentin the braided shield. A number of manufacturers recommendthat the shield be groundedat each node. Various manufacturers have differentsystems for bus termination. The RS485 standard does notdescribe how the “FailSafe” function would be carried out, justthatthesystemshouldbeabletohandletheerror.
Depending on therecipients’ design, the bus wires may be on the same level or require pull-upor pull-down to ensure that no faulty signals are detected when the bus is in resting mode (all transmitters are disconnected).

Some (older) operatorpanels had pull-up and pull-down resistance except for the actual bus termination at 120 ohm, similar to Westermo and Profibus. See 1 in drawing above.
Newer panelshave another type of recipient, so-called built-in “Fail Safe”,where simple bus termination resistanceis sufficient. See 2 in drawing above.
If other nodes onthe RS485 network require pull-up and pull-down and the operator panel isat one end of the loop,one of the following procedures can be carried out:
Connect two 1k/0.25 W resistorsin the 25-pole D-sub contact. See 3 in

Environmental Aspects

14.3 Recycling

The operator panelsconsist largely of aluminum. It is a greatadvantage in terms of both resources andthe environment if it can be recycled. Make sure that operator panels taken out ofservice are sent tofacilities for electronic scrap.
The manufacturer’s electronic waste is recycled by StenaTechnoworld AB. Aluminum front/rearcasings and othercovers can be removed and recycled. Plastic display frames and CF covers must be recycledas hard plastic. The circuit board containsmany valuable metals and should thereforebe recycled.
Remove the lithi um battery. Electrolytic capacitors and displays are currently not classified as hazardouswaste, but may be harmful tohealth and the environment.
The electrolytic capacitors should behandled as per Handbook 2001:7 (NFS) and displays asper NFS 2001:8.
Thefluorescenttubemustbehandledashazardouswaste. The packagingis made from wood fiberand shouldberecycled. Thelargeprinted
label on the front,however, must first be removed as it is made of PVC vinyl. The label and theplastic bag for the bracketsare recycled as soft plastic.
The manufacturer isa member of the REPAregister. The protective film on the front is recycledas soft plastic. Whenthe operator panel is no longer useful it can be returnedto the manufacturer for environmentally responsible recycling. Contact the companyfor further information.

14.4 EnvironmentalImpactReport

An operator panel impactsthe environment through its function, i.e., controlling industrial equipment. The energy and the scrapped parts that can be saved with efficient management meanthat the operator panel contributes to reduced environmental impact.
Listed below are examples of how you can reduce environmental impact during operator panel use.
Switch the system off when not in use.
Use green electricity.
Use energy-saving options, e.g.,turn off the backlight to both saveenergy and
reduce wearon the fluorescent tube.
