KROHNE BM 70 A_P EN - Manual (Page 12)

Installation and operating instructions BM 70 A/P Page: 12 11/00
Transmission rate: 1200 to 38400 bauds
Address: 0 to 255
Protocols: KROHNE Protocol, HART ® , Modbus RTU (from firmware
V.3.02/4.02)
Additional information: see "BM 70 A/P Communication RS 485"
instructions
Additional current output: The current output is conductively coupled to the RS 485 interface.
Technical data: see Section 4.5
Note: Switching contact and digital input are not available. However, the
current output can be configured as a switching output.
Various bus configurations
A) Connection of a BM 70 A/P as a single RS 485 user:
RS485 connection must
be terminated with 120 ohms
(if necessary insert resistor
between A and B)

B) Connection of several BM 70 A/P in the RS 485 bus system via stubs to the bus cable:

Notes:
•
If other devices are operated together with the BM 70 A/P Level-Radar on one bus, all devices
must use the same Communications protocol (e.g. ModBus devices of different makes or BM 70
A/P and TTM 70 with KROHNE Protocol).
•
When "HART
®
" is set as the protocol type, use only the protocol in keeping with the "HART
®
Specification". The "Hardware Implementation RS 485" does not conform to the HART
®
Standard
(see Sections 4.2 and 4.3).
