The Bus Connection Unit 560BCU05 is designed The Bus Connection Unit 560BCU05 is used in
to make the RTU560s TSI, TSO, Alarm and Warn- the racks 23ET24 and 560SFR02. It is mounted
ing signals accessible to the outside. on the back-side of the rack, and fixed by four
snap-in holders (see figure 2)
By using the bus connection unit 560BCU05, up
to eight communication units (CMUs) can be used The connection to the RTU560 communication

occupied by CMUx Modules. Two connector ca-

RJ45 patch cable can be used.
All supply voltages and control signals are inter-
faced by a direct Board-to-Board connection. To
enable operation using a 23ET24 rack, +24V
needs to be connected to a screw terminal con-
nector.
The two system signals ALARM and WARNING
can be accessed via relay contacts and are su-
pervised by a watchdog function. If the trigger
from the communication unit is missing for more
than 30 seconds, both relay contacts are acti-
vated.
The external minute interrupt of a real time clock
560RTCxx is connected to the system via an in-
ternal isolated opto-coupler (TSI) and routed to
the time master of the RTU560 system. The min-
ute pulse output (TSO) is available for other appli-
cations.
