ATTENTION! ESD damage!
Electrostatic discharge can lead to damage to electronic com-
ponents!
ÎTake care to discharge properly before touching the
inside of the device.To do so, touch a grounded sur-
face such as a radiator or tap!
ATTENTION! Short circuit!
A short circuit can lead to damage to electronic components!
ÎClose the housing before establishing the mains con-
nection!
If the mains adapter or its cable is damaged, it has to be replaced by an identical
mains adapter, which is available from the manufacturer or its customer service.
Do not use the device if it is visibly damaged!

3.1 Wall mounting
The unit must only be located in dry interior locations. In order to function fault-
lessly, the device must be protected from strong electromagnetic elds in the se-
lected mounting location.
Please pay attention to separate routing
of bus cables and mains cables.
1. Choose a mounting location.
2. Drill 2 holes (Ø 6 mm, centres 113 mm) and insert the wall plugs.
3. Fasten the base part of the housing by means of the enclosed screws (4 x 40 mm)
112mm
3.2 Electrical connection
Carry out the connection of the Datalogger to other modules in the
order described below:
1. Connect the data cable (RESOL VBus®, ) to the RESOL controller . If nec-
essary, extend the cable using the terminal block included and a common two-
wire cable.
2. Plug the mains adapter into a socket.
3. For a direct connection to a router or a PC, connect the Datalogger to a rout-
er  or a PC using the network cable (included with the DL2, ).
The cables carry low voltage and must not run together in a cable conduit with
cables carrying a voltage higher than 50 V (please pay attention to the valid local
regulations).

3.3 VBus® / data communication
Terminal connections of the Datalogger
The DL2 Datalogger is to be connected to the controller via the pre-connected
VBus®cable. The corresponding terminal allocation is described in the controller
manual.
The VBus®cable can be extended using the terminal block included and a common
two-wire cable.
The VBus®cable is pre-connected to the Datalogger terminals and . Another
module can be connected to the terminals and .
3.4 LAN Connection
The DL2 Datalogger can be connected to a computer or a router by using a net-
work cable (CAT5e, RJ45).
ÎConnect the network cable included to the network adapter of the computer
or the router.
For the next step of commissioning, see chap.8 Basicconguration, page 14.
