Cause Corrective action
RS-422 and RS-485 are different in
wiring. Connect the wires correctly.
Use a twisted-pair cable to ensure
stable communication.
Check the connection between
RS-422/485 cable and connector.
Connect the connection mode
and baud rate correctly.
Check the settings for the external
equipment (e.g., the
communications board) and be
sure to set the correct RS-422/485
communications specifications.
If a number of sensors are connected
over RS-485, be sure to set a unique
sensor number for each sensor.
Select the terminating resistor
(R3) only for the terminating
sensor head only. Be sure to turn
OFF the terminating resistor of
the rest of the sensor heads.
The communication condition may be
improved by lowering the baud rate.
The communication condition may be
improved by selecting the R1 or R2
terminating resistor.
In the case of connecting a number of
units over RS-485, reception errors in
the host device can be avoided by
delaying the sensor's response time.
Refer to the error codes and
send the data with the correct
format and command.
Send the next command after the
controller transmits the response
to the previous command.
The execution of the Save
commandis required after making
setting changes with the
communications command (by using
the Setting and Monitoring Software
HL-G1SMI or the dedicated console.
The set value will be discarded with
the power turned OFF if the set value
is not saved.
