ASYNC/SYNC INDUSTRIAL LINE DRIVER
Switches S3-1 and S3-2: Input Impedance
The setting for Switches S3-1 and S3-2 determines the Line Driver’s input
impedance. This allows you to choose the optimum impedance setting for your
application. In long-distance applications, the impedance of the cable must match
the impedance of the load (or resistor) of the Async/Sync Industrial Line Driver.
Thicker-gauge cables require a lower-ohm setting, while a thinner-gauge cable
should receive a higher-ohm setting. If you are using higher speeds, you will need a
lower-ohm setting and a higher-ohm setting for the slower speeds. Refer to Table 3-
5 for assistance in selecting a setting.

Switch S3-3: Timing-Mode Selection
Use Switch S3-3 to select the Line Driver’s timing mode. To operate the Line
Driver at 16, 32, or 64 kbps, set S3-3 to the On position. To select any other DTE
rate, set Switch S3-3 Off.
