Connection to a PC
The basic device has an interface that can be operated in
different configurations. You can select one of them for
communication and data transmission. The choice is
made via several DIP switches (S1 to S6).

Pin assignment and switch positions for the various
interfaces
Again use shielded cables for the interface cables, with
the cable shield connected to the AED housing via the
PG gland (see
Sections 6.7 and 6.8, starting on page
). The voltage supply can also be routed via this cable,
which means that a 5 or 6-wire, shielded cable is
required, depending on the interface. EMC reasons make
it an advantage to use a double-shielded cable, such as
