Potential Equalization

The difference between the actual physical voltage potentials
DGND of all connections with the bus must not exceed ±7 Volt.
If this cannot be guaranteed, an equalization has to be
provided. For most of the connections this means that the
minus connection of the power supply has to be fed-through as
a compensating line from connection to connection.

10.10 Adjustment of Address and Baud Rate

Before a control unit (PLC) or a computer (PC) can interchange
data with a data logger via the bus, address and baud rate for
the data logger have to be defined. Following hints have to be
considered:

All devices have to be adjusted to the same baud rate.

Within the bus topology the same address must not ap-
pear twice.
