Modbus SL Wiring Diagram Examples

The following wiring diagram examples include:

  • Example 1: IFM interfaces or Modbus SL hubs grouped in islands and Modbus client in the electrical equipment

  • Example 2: IFM interfaces or Modbus SL hubs grouped in islands and Modbus client in a separate section of electrical equipment

  • Example 3: IFM interfaces in daisy-chain or star connection

  • Example 4: two sets of Modbus SL hubs stacked connected via a terminal block

Example 1: Modbus-SL Network with Stacked Modules Contained in Electrical Equipment

The following wiring diagram is an example. It shows the connections for the Modbus cable and the 24 Vdc power supply:

  • The IFM interfaces and the Modbus SL hubs with part number LV434000 and TRV00210 are grouped in islands via stacking accessories.

  • The Modbus client is installed in the same electrical equipment as the IFM interfaces and Modbus SL hubs.

Example 2: Modbus-SL Network with Stacked Modules Not Contained in Electrical Equipment

The following wiring diagrams are examples. They show the connections for the Modbus cable and the 24 Vdc power supply:

  • The IFM interfaces with part number LV434000 or Modbus SL hubs are grouped in islands via stacking accessories.

  • The Modbus client is installed in a separate section of electrical equipment from the IFM interfaces and Modbus SL hubs where the two sections of electrical equipment are not bolted together.

Example 1: 0 V of power supply is floating.

For information about cable shield management, refer to the rules for Modbus connection linking several pieces of electrical equipment.

Example 4: Modbus-SL Network with Modbus SL Hubs Connected Via a Terminal Block

The following wiring diagram is an example. It shows the connections for the Modbus cable and the 24 Vdc power supply:

  • The Modbus cable has free wires.

  • The Modbus SL hubs are connected in a daisy-chain or in a star connection.

  • The Modbus client is installed in the same electrical equipment as the Modbus SL hub.

Wiring rules:

  • 0 VL and 0V of energized LV434000 IFM interface must follow auxiliary power supply rules detailed in ULP system power supply.

  • Only one 0V shield connection of SHLD and GND terminals of LV434211 adapter must be connected to the Modbus client.

For information about cable shield management, refer to the rules for Modbus connection linking several pieces of electrical equipment.
