Dear David, In the manual S5 U-Periphery is the 6ES5721-0xxxx cable given and also how to set the IM 314 card. I have seen this cable a lot of time and this cable is twisted for every two wires that belong to each other. With the cable length jumpers on the IM 314 you choose the parallel baudrate to the IM 463-2 (I have not checked if the IM 463-2 night be used for this distance ). Because the "backplain" is parallel be extended over this cable it is very important that you have the right cable with the right impedance and so on, when that is not ok you are GETTING TROUBLE for sure over this distance. So use metal D-connectors and place the shielding on the metal connectors... Maybe a stupid question, but how are those racks now coupled.... When there is only one rack then it is more interesting to place ET 200M with the 32 bits module on Profibus or on Profinet, the Profibus cable is not that high in price and you cab switch back to 187,5 or 500kBit/s (for Profibus) and that will work for sure, Did you check if the I/O-cards in the rack might be used with the IM 463-2... |
I hope that the answer will help, if you have still questions, don't hesitate to ask me. |
