7.1 Wiring illumination unit
![]() | (1) MCI - Modulation and communication interface | |
| Connection sensor - illumination unit | ||
| Only use original ifm cables E3M121, E3M122 or E3M123. | ||
| (2) Power supply | ||
| M12 connector, A-coded, 4 poles | ||
![]() | 1 GND2 9..32 V3 9..32 V4 GND | |

Before wiring note the following:
▶ Use all 4 wires of the M12 connector for the power supply.
▶ Unnecessarily long cables cause an additional voltage drop. For the power supply keep the cable short.
▶ Up to 14 A may flow via the cable for the power supply. Ensure a sufficiently dimensioned core cross-section.
▶ Use original ifm cables E3M131, E3M132 or E3M133.
