How do you connect a Profibus DP flowmeter to the network? The problem we are having is that Profibus DP must be Daisy Chained instead of Spur line/trunkline like Profibus PA. We have one 1" conduit hole to go through. We need to have a line coming in and a line going out. How can you seal around a conduit fitting with two Profibus DP lines? The sheilds on the Siemens DP cable do not have a drain wire so how can you ensure that the shields are continuous? My idea was to use a spade lug for the A&B lines then connect them to the proper terminals within the housing but no idea of how to do the shield. The main problem is that we are not putting this device on the end of the line so we must continue to the next device and still be able to remove this meter for service.
