To wire to this RS485 serial port, refer to Figure 10 on page 11 and complete the following steps:
1.
Disconnect the main power to the unit and remove the rear cover.
2.
Install the required cable clamp in the chosen conduit hole on the side of the electronics enclosure.
3.
Feed one end of the cable through the conduit hole, wire it as shown in Figure 15 below.
4.
If wiring of the unit has been completed, reinstall the wiring cover on the enclosure and tighten the set screw.
Note:
Prior to use, the serial port must be programmed.
WARNING! Make sure all covers, with their O-Ring seals, are installed and the set screws tightened before
applying power in a hazardous environment.
