Connection of Two Operator Panels in Transparent
Mode
Additional operator panels can be connected to the same controller with Transparent
mode. How to connect two or three operator panels is described below. Additional
operator panels are connected in a similar way.
Cable Connections
When two operator panels are to be connected to one controller the first operator
panel is connected to the controller, the second to the operator panel. A cable is con-
nected between the two operator panels as shown in the following illustration. The
cable is connected between the free port on the first operator panel and the corre-
sponding port on the second operator panel.
