Cabling

General Cabling Instructions for Fieldbus
To keep the response time and the number of incorrect dispatches to a minimum, use only standard industrial components in the network and avoid complex structures. The requirements for commercial cabling components are specified in sections 8-8 in the ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-B series standards. Using commercial components can decrease system performance. The use of such products or components can cause unsatisfactory performance in industrial control applications.

Cable Routing
Fieldbus cables must be routed separately from motor cables. The recommended minimum distance is 300 mm. Do not let fieldbus cables and motor cables cross each other. If it is not possible, the fieldbus cables must cross other cables at an angle of 90°.

Shielded field bus and control cables can be routed in parallel. To have further shielding, install a grounded metal conduit around the fieldbus and control cable run.

• A. Motor cables
• B. Fieldbus cables

Use cables with right length. If there is extra cable, put it in a noise free location. Multiple rounds of cable and a large circumstance area make an antenna (see Illustration 4). Noise connects to fieldbus cable and can cause communication problems.

• A. Motor cables
• B. Fieldbus cables

NOTICE
To prevent shield fracture, do not bend the cable too much or run the cable back and forth on the same path too tightly.

Strain Relief
If there is a possibility of tensile load on the cable, install it with a strain relief. When it is possible, the strain relief of the fieldbus cables should not be done at the shield connection to ground. This may reduce the effectiveness of the bonding. The tensile load and vibration can also damage the shield.

General Cabling Instructions for Ethernet
Use only shielded cables of category CAT5e or CAT6.

Table 4: The Recommended Cable Shielding

Use standard Ethernet 100 Mbit pinout connectors. The plug type to be used is a shielded RJ45 plug, with a maximum length of 40 mm (1.57 in).

The maximum length of the CAT5e or CAT6 cable between two RJ45 ports is 100 meters. You can get cables that have a certain length, or get cable in bulk and assemble the connectors at commissioning. Obey the instructions of the manufacturer if you assemble the connectors manually. If you make the cables by yourself, be sure to select the correct crimp tools and use precautions. The individual contacts of the RJ45 socket are allocated as per the T568-B standard.
In basic use, the RJ45 connectors in the cable (or the ones assembled) must connect the cable shield to the ground level of the Ethernet terminal in the AC drive.

Grounding the Cable Shield
Equipotential bonding refers to using metal parts to make ground potential everywhere in the installation the same, as the system ground. If the ground potential of all the devices is the same, you can prevent current from flowing through paths that are not designed to have current. You can also shield cables efficiently.

An error in the equipotential bonding can cause bad quality or malfunction of the fieldbus communication. It is not easy to find an error in equipotential bonding. It is also not easy to correct errors in large installations after commissioning. Thus, in the planning phase, it is important to plan the installation to get good equipotential bonding. In the commissioning phase, make the equipotential bonding connections carefully.
Do grounding with low HF impedance, for example, via backplane mounting. If ground connection wires are necessary, use wires that are as short as possible. Paint coating acts as an insulator on metal and prevents grounding. Remove paint coating before doing grounding.

When equipotential bonding is good, the RJ45 connectors in the cable (or the ones assembled) must connect the cable shield to the ground level of the Ethernet terminal in the AC drive. The cable shield can be connected to the ground level at both ends via the built-in RC circuit (Illustration 6). This grounds the disturbances and, to some degree, prevents current from flowing in the cable shield. To do this, use a shielded Ethernet cable (S/FTP or STP) which grounds devices via an RJ45 connector and thus uses a built-in drive RC circuit.

When disturbances are strong, the cable shield can be exposed and then 360 degrees grounded (see Illustration 9) directly to the AC drive ground (see Illustration 8).

If the ground potentials of the connected devices are different, a cable shield that is connected at both ends causes current to flow in the shield. To prevent this, the cable shield must be disconnected or cut at some point between the devices. Grounding should be done at a location nearest to the place where the disturbances meet the cable (see Illustration 8).

We recommend grounding the cable shield as in examples A and C (see Illustration 9). Do not ground the cable shield as in example B.

• A. Cable clamp
• B. Ground terminal
• C. Cable gland

The OPTEA and OPTE9 Option Boards
The OPTEA and OPTE9 Dual Port Ethernet option boards have a built-in unmanaged Ethernet switch. It allows the option boards to be connected in a daisy-chain (line) and ring topologies. They can also be used in a star topology. To connect the option board to the Ethernet network, use either one of the RJ45 ports of the option board. Do not commission long daisy chains. Each switch in the chain causes some latency, and the total delay can be significant. The accepted number of devices in a daisy chain varies, but we recommend that the number of devices is not more than 32.

When using the PROFINET I/O protocol and the topology feature of PROFINET, connect cables in ports specified in the topology map. Otherwise, it does not matter which ports the cables are connected to since the internal switch in the option board sends packets to the correct destination.

The OPTEA and OPTE9 option boards support the following ring protocols:

• MRP with PROFINET I/O
• DLR with EtherNet/IP
• RSTP with PROFINET I/O, EtherNet/IP, and Modbus TCP/UDP

An ethernet ring network requires that at least one device is the ringmaster and logically breaks the ring. It can be either PLC or switch, but the option board can only be the ring slave. The RJ45 connector LEDs of the OPTEA and OPTE9 option boards give information about line speed and network traffic.

• A. Network speed indicator
• B. Network activity indicator

The left LED of the RJ45 connector is a network speed indicator.

• LED is dimmed (dark) when the port is connected to a 10 Mbit/s network.
• LED is yellow when the port is connected to a 100 Mbit/s network.
• LED is dimmed (dark) when the port is connected to a 1000 Mbit/s network. The option board does not support a 1000 Mbit/s Ethernet, so there is no communication.

The right LED of the RJ45 connector is a network activity indicator. It blinks green when the port sends or transmits network packages. Usually, this LED starts to blink immediately when the option board is connected to the Ethernet network. For example, broadcast queries that are transmitted to the option board cause the network activity LED to blink.

The OPTEC Option Board

• The OPTEC EtherCAT option board has two RJ45 ports to connect it to the network. Notice the IN/OUT direction. The cable coming from the OUT port of the master or the previous device must be connected to the IN port of the option board.
• The OPTEC option board can also be used in the EtherCAT ring network (Cable Redundancy). EtherCat also supports star topology when using EtherCat hub devices.

Do not install the OPTEC option board into a standard Ethernet network, but only into dedicated EtherCAT networks.

• 1 OUT
• 2 IN

The LED of the RJ45 connector of the option board gives information about network activity.

• A. Led is not used
• B. Network activity indicator

Illustration 15: The OPTEC RJ45 Connectors

The left LED of the RJ45 connector is not used and thus it is always dimmed (dark). The right LED of the RJ45 connector is a network activity indicator. It blinks when the port sends or transmits network packages.

The OPTCI, OPTCP, and OPTCQ Option Boards
The OPTCI Modbus TCP, OPTCP PROFINET I/O, and OPTCQ EtherNet/IP option boards have one Ethernet port. Thus, these option boards can only be connected to a star topology.

• A. Network activity indicator
• B. Network speed indicator

Illustration 16: The OPTCI, OPTCP, OPTCQ RJ45 Connector

NOTE!
The LEDs in these option boards are in the opposite order when compared to OPTEA and OPTE9, and they function differently.

The right LED of the RJ45 connector is a network speed indicator.

• LED is dimmed (dark) when the port is connected to a network with half a duplex.
• LED is yellow when the port is connected to a network with a full duplex.
• LED is dimmed (dark) when the port is connected to a 1000 Mbit/s network. The option board does not support a 1000 Mbit/s Ethernet, so there is no communication.

The left LED of the RJ45 connector is a network activity indicator. It blinks green when the port sends or transmits network packages.

Layout and Connections

The OPTEA/E9 Option Board Layout
The VACON® Ethernet option boards are connected to the Ethernet bus using the standard RJ45 connectors (1 and 2). The communication between the control board and the AC drive takes place through a standard VACON® Interface Board Connector. OPTEA and OPTE9 boards have identical layouts and connections.

1. Ethernet port 1 (PHY1)
2. Ethernet port 2 (PHY2)
3. Interface Board connector

The OPTEC Option Board Layout
The VACON® EtherCAT option board is connected to the EtherCAT bus using the RJ45 connectors compatible with Ethernet standard (ISO/IEC 8802-3). The communication between the control board and the AC drive takes place through a standard VACON® Interface Board Connector.
