PSSu E S RS232-T. It is valid until new documentation is published.
This operating manual explains the function and operation, describes
the installation and provides guidelines on how to connect the product .
The module PSSu E S RS232-T is suitable for use where there are increased environmental requirements (see Technical Details).
This documentation is intended for instruction and should be retained
for future reference.
1.1.2Terminology: System environment A and B
Terminology: System environment A and B1-][BA Einf Begriffsdefinition Sys A + B
The PSSu system can be used in two different system environments.
The module's application area is described in the chapter "Intended
Use" of the manual.
The distinction is made between
PSSu in system environment A
PSSu in system environment B
The distinction is based on the application area of the PSSu system.
PSSu in system environment A may be used in the
Decentralised system PSSu I/O with SafetyBUS p
Decentralised system PSSu I/O with ST fieldbuses such as CANopen,
DeviceNet
Not in the automation system PSS 4000
PSSu in system environment B may be used in the
Automation system PSS 4000, e.g. with the
– Decentralised system PSSu I/O with SafetyNET p
– Control system PSSu PLC
– Control system PSSu multi
