4. To configure a mass flow
device first make all electrical
connections to the device. For
DeviceNet devices use a
standard DeviceNet +24 Vdc
power supply . The Net LED
may indicate red if there is no
terminator on the network. If
there is more than one device
connected then the NET LED
may blink. RS485/D-sub
devices use a ±15 Vdc power
supply . Pins required to be
connected are pins 3 +15
Vdc, 5 -15 Vdc, 4 Power
Common and 7 Signal
Common. URS-20 (now
obsolete) is part of kit FMA745-CK-P. Shown to the right is
the basic RS485 connections.
5. Connect communication cable.
There are various ways to
connect the device regardless
of device configuration. Devices
may be connected through the
diagnostic port using cables in
the Basic Configurator Kit
FMA-745-CK (Cable Assembly
2.5mm and Converter 232/485)
for RS485 communications.
