FAQs
Q1: What is the main function of the TB852 plug?
A1: It terminates the RCU Link in single-CPU configurations to maintain signal integrity.
Q2: Can TB852 be used in redundant CPU configurations?
A2: No, it’s only used in single CPU configurations. Redundant systems use RCU link cables instead.
Q3: Is TB852 required for temporary single CPU operation?
A3: Yes, it must be installed if only one processor is used temporarily.
Q4: Does TB852 require configuration?
A4: No, it is a passive hardware terminator and does not require any setup.
Q5: Can I use a third-party terminator instead of TB852?
A5: No, only ABB-specified components ensure proper system operation.
Q6: What happens if TB852 is not installed in a single CPU setup?
A6: Signal reflection and communication errors may occur in the RCU Link.
Q7: Is TB852 hot-swappable?
A7: No, install only when the controller system is powered off.
Q8: Is TB852 reusable?
A8: Yes, it can be removed and reinstalled when needed.
Q9: How do I identify the TB852 plug?
A9: The plug is labeled TB852 with part number 3BSC950263R1.
Q10: Where is TB852 installed?
A10: It is inserted into the RCU Link connector of the primary processor.
