Note:
The FC-A and FC-B terminals can accept
the MS/TP FC Bus, N2 Bus or ModBus RTU, but
not a mixture of both on the same trunk. For
example, if you want to integrate both MS/TP
and ModBus RTU, select one FC terminal for
MS/TP FC Bus use and the other for N2 Bus use.

connect more than two wires to each terminal.
Connecting Modbus RTU devices
About this task:
The network engine connects to Modbus RTU devices
directly if the RS485 protocol is in use or by using
a converter if the RS-232 protocol is in use. (After
installation and wiring are complete, refer to the
Network
