External Interfaces
• This ST unit’s serial interface is not isolated.When the host (PLC) unit is also not iso-
lated, and to reduce the risk of damaging the RS232C/RS422/RS485 circuit, be sure
to connect pin #5 SG (Signal Ground) terminal.
• Similarly shaped connectors are used for COM1 and COM2 of the ST. Therefore, be
sure to connect the correct connectors. Communication is not available unless the
connectors are connected correctly.
• When isolation is necessary, you can use the RS232C isolation unit (CA3-ISO232-01) on
COM1.
