The ibaBM-DP device has to be operated with an external DC voltage 24 V (unregulated) with a maximum current consumption of 500 mA. The operating voltage should be supplied using the 2-pin Phoenix screw connector included in delivery. If desired, you can order DIN-rails or plug-in power supply units from iba.

The device can be switched off by disconnecting it from the voltage supply.

Switching the device on and off is without interferences regarding the PROFIBUS, i. e. the PROFIBUS communication on the DP line will continue without disruption when the device is switched off.
