Pepperl+Fuchs network booklet guides the reader through aspects such as network design, topology and configuration.
Pepperl+Fuchs, the AS-Interface Association and the AS-Interface Academy have published a booklet to help users install and commission AS-Interface networks.
The booklet guides the reader through aspects such as network design, topology and configuration.
It suits anyone designing, installing, commissioning or maintaining an AS-Interface network.
AS-Interface is amongst the best supported open networks, with well over 100 manufacturers offering AS-Interface products.
The booklet includes two checklists.
The Project checklist covers addressing and configuration while the Sign off checklist covers installation issues such as cable routing and documentation.
Consideration is given to cable selection and EMC requirements as well as power supply requirements.
The Tips and Tricks section offers users some interesting ideas for fault finding and improving the installation quality.
The guide suits new users of AS-interface and is also a useful reminder for those more familiar with AS-interface systems.
