AXIMA 2000/4000 Installation Manual
COM 1
The AXIMA 2000/4000 COM 1 connection is a RS232C serial
communication port. The COM 1 port is activated and will
automatically detect the baud rate by receiving one carriage return
after power up. Both serial ports, COM 1 and COM 2, can be open
simultaneously and attached to different programs. For example, one
port could be used as a programming and diagnostics port while the
second port is communicating with an operator interface panel such
as the EMERSON Motion Control T-60 panel.
Serial Port and Cable Specifications
It is recommended that all communication lines be twisted pair
shielded cable. Cables should be routed away from motor power and
other high voltage or noisy wiring.
Table 1 Serial Communications Port Setup
The RS232C serial communication cables should be no longer than
50 feet to comply with RS232C specifications. However, longer cables
may be used at slower baud rates (less than 9600). The wiring
diagrams on the next page show the TIX and TIA serial cables which
are available from EMERSON Motion Control in 10, 25 and 50 foot
lengths. Non-standard lengths can be special ordered.
