Control Board Cable Interconnection; Earth Points Interconnection - ABB PQFM Instruction Manual

6.11.2 Control board cable interconnection

WARNING: Failure to interconnect the control boards in an appropriate way will result
in filter malfunctioning and possibly sever damage of the unit.
Interconnect the control boards of a following unit with a previous filter unit by an RJ45-
based communication cable (straight interconnection). This cable is provided with each
unit.
Figure 55: shows the way to interconnect the control boards.

- The RJ45 control cable coming from the preceding filter unit is plugged in the left
hand side RJ45-socket at the top of the filter control board.
- The RJ45 control cable leaving for the next filter unit is plugged in the right hand
side RJ45-socket at the top of the filter control board.
- Repeat the same procedure for any other filters to be connected.
Notes:
- In the first unit of a filter system, the left hand RJ45-socket will always be empty.
- In the last unit of a filter system, the right hand RJ45-socket will always be empty.
- During the commissioning phase, a unique address has to be assigned to each
unit in a filter system through dip switch (see
