Hello; One of the best sources of information on pre-constructed Profibus cables is this document, section 6.5: https://support.industry.siemens.com/cs/ww/en/view/35222591
Can you give us the non-functionning cable's make and model, so we can help you determine why it does not fit Profibus standards? Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier |

Hello Johannes; Look up the product number of your (not-connectabe-to-Profbus) cable, and search for its description on Lapp Kabel's website. Lapp Kable manufactures Profibus cables using B-coded M12 connectors, as you can see in the screenshot below. For DeviceNet, they use A-coded connectors, for example, and these will not fit in a Profibus device. Hope this helps, Daniel Chartier Edit: see here for a visualization of the different M12 coding formats: https://blog.muellerelectric.com/m12-cable-coding-decoded-which-is-right-for-you-1-0 D. C. |
