Functional Ground on the DIN Rail
The DIN rail for your LT system is common with the functional ground plane and must be
mounted on a conductive backplane.
Shielded Cable Connections
Cables carrying the fast I/O, analog I/O, and Serial communication signals must be
shielded. The shielding must be securely connected to ground. The fast I/O and analog I/O
shields may be connected either to the functional ground (FE) or to the protective earth
ground (PE) of your LT.
NOTE: The functional ground of the Ethernet connection is internal.
