DIP Switch Settings

The converter unit has 6 digits DIP switch for setting the RS-422A/485 communication
conditions.
Before connecting the cable to the converter unit, make the DIP switch settings.
ON
When using the host link or 1:1 NT Link, set the RS-422A send mode to continual sending
(set both SW1-5 and 6 OFF).
When using the 1:N NT Link (standard or high-speed), set the RS-422A send mode to
comply with CS control of RS-232C (i.e., one of SW1-5 and SW1-6 must be ON).
Note:
•
Do not set both SW1-5 and SW1-6 ON at the same time. This may damage internal cir-
cuits.
•
T e power supply to the device supplying +5 V must be turned OFF before starting wir-
h
ing work.
•
Before connecting the RS-232C cable and turning on the power to an RS-232C device
such as a PT (i.e., turning on the power to the converter unit), check that the cable is
wired correctly and that the DIP switch settings are correct. If the power is turned on
while there is a wiring fault, the internal circuits of the converter unit or the RS-232C de-
vice may be damaged.
