Wiring the NX1W-CIF01 Serial Communications Option Board

This section explains the wiring of an NX1W-CIF01 Serial Communications Option Board.
When you connect a computer or other peripheral device to a Controller that has a
non-isolated DC power supply, either ground the 0-V side of the external power supply
or do not ground it at all.
If the peripheral devices are grounded incorrectly, the external power supply may be
short-circuited. Never ground the 24-V side of the power supply, as shown in the fol-
lowing figure.

Recommended RS-232C Wiring
We recommend the following wiring method for the RS-232C, especially in environments prone to
noise.
1
Use shielded twisted-pair cables for the communications cables.
• Recommended RS-232C Cables
UL2464 AWG28x5P IFS-RVV-SB (UL product)
AWG28x5P IFVV-SB (non-UL product)
UL2464-SB (MA) 5Px28AWG (7/0.127) (UL product)
CO-MA-VV-SB 5Px28AWG (7/0.127) (non-UL product)
2
Combine a signal wire and SG (signal ground) wire in a twisted-pair cable. At the same time,
bundle the SG wires at the connectors on Option Board and the remote device.
3
Connect the SHLD of the communications cable to the SHLD on the Option Board.
