Depending on the PROFIBUS master, up to 123 ET 200X modules can be run on one
PROFIBUS branch.
Hardware configuration
The ASM 473 is integrated in the hardware configuration of the SIMATIC Manager by calling
Setup.exe in the directory daten\S7_OM on the "RFID Systems Software & Documentation"
CD. Currently, the ASM 473 cannot be integrated in masters of other manufacturers.
Reader connection system
A reader always occupies the two M12 connection sockets X3 and X4 on the ASM 473. A
prefabricated cable makes it easy to connect the reader. The standard version of the
connecting cable is 2 m in length. Other cable lengths are available on request.
For customers who want to assemble their own cables, an ASM cable connector with screw-
type terminals is available. Cables and ASM cable connectors can be ordered from the
MOBY catalog.
