1 Safety
1.1 Intended use
The device AMBUS® Link is exclusively intended for the configuration, operation and
monitoring of M-Bus installations as a total system.
Any improper or inappropriate use might result in a state in which the operational safety
of the device cannot be guaranteed anymore. The manufacturer waives any liability for
resulting damages of persons and materials.
1.2 Notes on safety instructions and symbols
The devices have been designed to fulfil modern safety requirements. They have been
tested and delivered in a condition that ensures safe operation. However, improper or
non-intended use of the device may result in it becoming dangerous. Please always pay
attention to the safety instructions in this manual which are accompanied by the following
symbols:
WARNING
WARNING
can potentially cause life-threatening injuries and lead to a high safety risk.
ATTENTION
can cause minor to medium severe injuries.
NOTE indicates a dangerous situation which might lead to material damage,
if not prevented.
COMMENT provides helpful tips and recommendations as well as information for efficient and trouble-free operation.

This installation instruction is intended for qualified personnel and contains
1.3 Safety instructions and precautionary measures
The manufacturer takes over no responsibility if the following safety instructions and precautionary measures are disregarded:
1. Changes to the device, which are implemented without prior written approval of
the manufacturer, lead to the immediate termination of product liability and warranty.
2. Installation, operation, maintenance, repair and decommissioning of this device
must only be performed by specialists authorised by the manufacturer, operator or
owner of the device. The specialist needs to read and understand the entire installation and operation manual and is obliged to follow these instructions.
3. Control the supply voltage and information given on the type plate, before the device is installed.
4. Check all connections, settings and technical specifications of any available peripheral devices.
5. Open the housing or parts of the housing, which contain electrical or electronic
components, only if the electric energy is turned off.
6. Touch no electronic compo ne nts (ESD sensitivity).
7. Expose the system concerning the mechanical load (pressure, temperature, IP
protection etc.) maximally to the specified classification.
8. For works concerning mechanical components of the system, the pressure in the
pipe system has to be released or the temperature of the medium needs to be
brought to values harmless for humans.
9. No information stated her e or anywhere else releases planners, engineers, fitt er s
and operators from their personal careful and comprehensive evaluation of the respective system configuration in terms of functionality and operational safety.
10. The local working and safety standards and statutes need to be met.
1.4 About the operation manual
The manufacturer reserves the right to change the technical details without prior notice.
The newest information and versions of this operation manual are available at your local
subsidiary or representation as well as on the website.
WARNING
Any liability is waived if the instructions and procedures
not followed!
NOTE
thus no basic working steps. Before putting AMBUS® Link or the system into
operation, the installation and operation manual needs to be read and understood completely.
Keep this manual for later reference!

2 Product description
We congratulate you for purchasing this high-quality M-Bus data central.
The device AMBUS® Link makes the configuration, operation and monitoring of M-Bus
installations as a total system easier. The integrated web server serves for easy provision
of your consumption data on any terminal devices or subordinate control systems.
2.1 Areas of application
AMBUS® Link is designed for technical building management and also for building services and can be used as follows:
Data concentrator
As central function of your consumption data for analysis and documentation purposes of
all flow and energy meters. For easy administration the integrated web server supports
on all web-enabled terminal devices the user in recording, presentation and provision of
consumption data for utility cost billing or monitoring.
System integration component
With the versatile interfaces AMBUS® Link has to offer you can integrate your consumption data in the simplest way in subordinate building control systems.
2.2 Device design
AMBUS® Link is intended for control cabinet installation. The device design is defined as
follows:
Status logger, operating status
M-Bus slaves
IP address
