TM3 Description

 

General Description

Introduction

The TM3 transmitter expansion module is equipped with:

o1 front connector RJ45

o1 screw for functional ground connection

o2 status LEDs (link and power)

The TM3 receiver expansion module is equipped with:

o1 front connector RJ45

o1 connector for power supply

o2 status LEDs (link and power)

The TM3 transmitter module is connected to the logic controller through the TM3 bus. It is connected using a connector at the left side of the module. The TM3 transmitter expansion module is the last physical module of the local configuration (there is no bus connector on the right-hand side of the module).

The TM3 receiver module is connected through the front connector RJ45 to the TM3 transmitter module with an appropriate cable.
