Note:
The above pin-out is applicable to all the flow meters and controllers
with the
DB9
connector. The availability of different output signals depends
on the options ordered. Optional configurations are noted on the unit’s
calibration sheet.
Do not connect RS-485 to RS-232 units or cables. Damage will
occur! Check part number or contact factory to verify RS-485
functionality.
Due to variance in cable manufacturing, please identify proper
wiring/pins via continuity check & color when using blunt cut
multi-strand cables.
