RS-232 Connections to the Controller
The following illustrations show which cables can be used to connect to the
controller. To connect two cables to the 1769-L30 controller, you must connect the
straight cable end to Channel 0.
ATTENTION
!
When you connect or disconnect the serial cable while
backplane power is on, an electrical arc can occur. In
hazardous locations, this could cause an explosion.
NOTE:
The Channel 0 port is locally
grounded. Only Channel 1 of the 1769-L30
controller is electrically isolated.
