3.4 For Output connection
・
Since the transistor output is insulated from the internal circuit by a photo-coupler, it can be used both
as a NPN output and PNP (equal value) output.
3.5 RS485 Communication
・
When using shielded cable for the RS485 transmission line, ground one end.
Use a class D dedicated earth for grounding. Do not share a ground with other earth lines. (Fig.1)
・
Be sure to connect with daisy chain the RS485 transmission line between each unit.
Do not use a splitter. (Fig.2)
・
With a terminal station, RS485 (E) (No.10) and RS485 (-) (No.9) should be shorted.
*E terminal is not SG (signal ground) terminal. Do not ground shielded cable.
