Concept
Screw Terminals for AS-Bs with 36 I/O Points
AS-Bs with 36 I/O points use nine pluggable terminal blocks and one fixed terminal block.
The terminal blocks are used as follows:
One 3-position pluggable terminal block for the power input
One 2-position fixed terminal block for the two return terminals
One 4-position pluggable terminal block for the RS-485 communication
One 6-position pluggable terminal block for the six universal inputs/outputs of type Ub
One 6-position pluggable terminal block for the four triac outputs
One 8-position pluggable terminal block for the four relay outputs
Four 6-position pluggable terminal blocks for the 20 universal inputs/outputs of type Ua
One of the terminal blocks also accomodates two terminals for universal inputs/outputs of type Ub.
The following figure shows the screw terminals of an AS-B with 36 I/O points.
The following table describes the screw terminals of an AS-B with 36 I/O points.

The screw terminals 6 to 9, intended for RS-485 communication, act as connectors to AS-B and are easily inserted/removed without disrupting the network. Doing so may help in isolating possible RS-485 communication problems.
