Connection "remote"
5 Connection "remote"
Remote control options are provided via the 26-pole D-Sub connector with the des-
ignation ”remote“ on the electronic drive unit.
Remove the remote plug from the TC 400 PB and connect a remote control unit.
Pin assignment of the connector according to table.
Shielded connectors and cables must be used.
The following information display the factory setting. Configuration is possible us-
ing the Pfeiffer Vacuum parameter set.
5.1 Pin assignment
5.2 Operation via "remote" connection
+24 V DC* Output /
Pin 1
Inputs 2 - 6 and the connections to Pins 10, 13, 14 are activated by connecting them
with +24 V DC to Pin 1 (active high). They can also be activated via an external PLC.
The functions are deactivated by "PLC high level" and by "PLC low level".
• PLC high level: +13 V to +33 V
• PLC low level: -33 V to +7 V
• Ri: 7 kΩ
•I
max
< 210 mA (with RS 485, if existing)
