Operation
The Adaptor 23AD64 is an adaptor to connect
RTU211 extension racks. It is also used to ex- Start- S2-1 S2-2 S2-3 S2-4

Signaling The fiber optical connector X3 will be connected

The adaptor has 5 LEDs showing the activities
on the serial peripheral bus (see Figure 1).
 LED 1: Activity on X1 or X3
 LED 2: Activity on X8
 LED 3: Activity on X5
 LED 4: Activity on X4
 LED 5: Power Supply
Connections
The RS485 Bus will be connected to X1 and
X2. Connection according Table 3.
X1-1 X1-2 X1-3
X2-1 X2-2 X2-3
to the superordinated device (e.g. 23AD63. The
connector X4 can be used for additional racks.
At connector X7 all internal supply voltages are
available for test purpose.
Please note:
After the first connection 23AD63/23AD64 the
transmission media (RS485 / Fiber Optical) can’t
be changed anymore.
Addition I/O modules are connected to X5.
Please note: De-energize the system, before
plugging or unplugging this connector
Power Supply
The supply power 24 – 110 V DC for the power
supply unit 23PU63 will be connected to X6
(1,2). The process voltage 24 V DC for addi-
tional modules is available on X6 (4,5).
