Note :

• Do not bind the power supply cable and transmission cable to avoid an 

erroneous operation.

• Use shield cable for transmission cable.  

The shield metal should be earthed (grounded). 

• Do not forget to earth (ground) the MODBUS Convertor. 
• Install the disconnect switch to the easily accessible location.
• Install the fuse (2A) to the L (L1) line of power supply cable.
• Before connecting cables, turn off the power of the VRF units connected 

to the convertor.

(1)  Use ring terminals with insulating sleeves as shown in the figure below 

to connect to the terminal block.

(2)  Securely clamp the ring terminals to the cables using an appropriate 

tool so that the cables do not come loose.

(3)  Use the specified cables, connect them securely, and fasten them so 

that there is no stress placed on the terminals.

(4)  Use an appropriate screwdriver to tighten the terminal screws. 

Do not use a screwdriver that is too small, otherwise, the screw heads 

may be damaged and prevent the screws from being properly tight-

ened.

(5)  Do not tighten the terminal screws too much, otherwise, the screws 

may break.

(6)  See the table for the terminal screw tightening torques.
(7)  Do not fix 2 or more power supply cables with 1 screw.
