REXROTH BTV04.2 Micro Control Panel Functions and Applications

2. Typical Connection Examples

BTV04.2 can be directly connected to various Indramat controllers:

MTC200-P/MTA200-P/IS200-P: Connected via RS485 interface (X40/X41 or X16), supports up to 2 BTVs in parallel

CLC-D, Ecodrive3, ELC: connected via a single bus

PPC-R, CLM, DLC: connected via standard RS485 interface

All communication cables are recommended to use shielded twisted pair cables, with a length not exceeding 400 meters (RS485) or 10 meters (RS232), and terminal resistors should be installed at both ends of the bus if necessary.
