Countermeasures for Ethernet cable noise
When the FL-net expansion unit is being used, expose the cable by removing a part of the cable sheath and use the shield
clamp for the exogenous noise countermeasure.
When you cannot use the shield clamp, install a ferrite core as a substitute to ethernet cable (near the expansion unit).
