4.3 Communications
ST fibre optic connections – 4 per relay (Refer to section 4 – Communications Interface).
5 Ancillary Equipment
The relay can be interrogated locally or remotely by making connection to the fibre optic terminals on the rear of
the relay or the RS232 port on the relay fascia. For local interrogation a portable PC is required. The PC must be
capable of running Microsoft Windows Ver 3.1 or greater, and it must have a standard RS232 port. A standard
data cable is required to connect from the PC to the 25 pin female D type connector on the front of the relay. For
remote communications more specialised equipment is required. See the section on Communications for further
information, and also see Report No. 690/0/01 on Relay Communications.
6 Precautions
When running fibre optic cable, the bending radius must not be less than the minimum radius specified by the
cable manufacturer.
If the fibre optic cables are anchored using cable ties, these ties must be hand tightened – under no
circumstances should cable tie tension tools or cable tie pliers be used.
