4 - MANAGING THE CONNECTION BETWEEN CONTROLLERS AND
ALPHANUMERIC TERMINALS
4.3 - Electrical connections for the pLAN (local area network)
4.3.1 - Connecting controllers to the pLAN
The electrical connection between the controllers under the pLAN (RS485) is carried out using an AWG20/22 shielded cable composed
of a twisted pair and a shield. The cards must be connected in parallel using the J14 connector.
The first and last controller must be no more than 500 m apart.
4.3.2 - Connecting a remote screen to the pLAN
The user can connect a user terminal to connector J15 up to a distance of 50m. For a greater distance, 2 TCONN boards and a AWG20/22/24
shielded cable comprising 2 twisted pairs and shielding must be used. The shielded cable must be no longer than 200m.
