4.3.3 Grounding Cautions
4.3.4 Cautions When Connecting I/O Signal Lines
• I/O signal lines must be wired separately from charged lines. If the power cord
needs to be wired together with the (I/O) signal lines for any reason, use
shielded lines and ground one end of the shield to the PL’s FG terminal.
• To improve noise immunity, attaching a ferrite core to the power cord is recom-
mended.
