Host Connections by RS-232C
Connect NT20S-ST128 with an RS-232C Interface Unit installed to the host com-
puter with an RS-232C cable.
RS-232C connection allows a single NT20S to be connected to the host.
A computer or other control device with a built-in RS-232C interface is a suitable
host for connection to the NT20S.
