Building the Communication Cable
There are several considerations that help determine the type of cable needed for
your D2–DCM application.
1. Will the D2–DCM be physically connected in a point-to-point configuration
or multi-drop configuration?
2. What electrical specification is best for your application? RS232C or
RS422?
3. What is the cable schematic?
4. What are the relevant cable specifications?
5. What installation guidelines are necessary?
The next few pages discuss these considerations in detail.
Tip:
If you need a quick test cable you may want to try our FA–CABKIT which allows
you to quickly build several different types of cables. (See page 15 for more
information). If you’re fairly comfortable with network or communications cabling
requirements, see Appendix A for detailed diagrams.
