RS422 Interconnection 

This is the most common method of terminating signal between two or more signs. A 
6-conductor cable is used. One end terminates to the “RS422 OUT” 6-position 
terminal block (A31-TB3) on the controller in the first display. The other end of the 
cable will terminate on the “RS422 IN” 6-position terminal block (A31-TB2) on the 
controller of the second display.
