Connecting to an External Device
■ Connection
* Recommended communication cable:
KPEV-SP(1P) wire with balanced type twisted shield (strand wire)
Nominal cross-section area 0.16mm
2
(AWG25) min.
A terminal cover is attached to the terminal block. After 
performing the wiring, be sure to reattach the terminal cover.
● Crimp-type terminal
Use Y or round terminals for wiring to the I/O terminal of the following sizes.
Y terminal
Round terminal
■ Wiring
To connect to an external device including a PC, 
refer to the following wiring diagram for connection.
• The cable to be used for communication should be 
15m or less.
• Be sure to connect the shield wire of the shield cable 
to the SG terminal on the external device.
• The shield wire connected to SG terminal should not 
contact with other signal cables or terminal blocks.
■ Input circuit diagram
* Pin No. 1, 4 and 5 (SG) are common to the 0V blue wire on the main 
sensor amplifier.
Communication Settings
Use the communication setting switch for communication settings.
• After changing the 
communication settings, be 
sure to cycle power.
• After setting, reattach the 
included switch protection 
sticker.
Terminal No. Terminal symbol Description
1SG
Connect the shield wire of the communication 
cable. Terminals 1, 4 and 5 are internally 
connected.
2 RD (input)
Connect to SD of an external device with the 
communication cable.
3 SD (output)
Connect to RD of an external device with the 
communication cable.
4 SG Terminals 1, 4 and 5 are internally connected.
5 SG Terminals 1, 4 and 5 are internally connected.
6 DRQ (input)
If terminals 6 (DRQ) and terminals 1, 4 or 5 (SG) 
are short circuited, data is transmitted without a 
command from an external device.
