method is switched with this unit’s DIP switch.)
Note for using RS-232C isolation unit (CA3-ISO232-01)

Supercapacitor (electric double-layer capacitor) can be back up clock data.
Please note the following points,
When the voltage from the Supercapacitor is low, clock data is lost when this
product is turned OFF. In order to charge up the super capacitor, power
needs to be supplied to the main unit for 5 minutes or longer.
The average period for backup is as follows:
Initial: Approximately 100 days
After 5 years: Approximately 30 days
