    2.4 Control Connections 2.4.1 Com Port to Relay The communications line (COM) constitutes a very low safety voltage circuit. To preserve the quality, it must be installed separately from other lines that have dangerous voltages (power distribution line). The communication port to relays provides digital signals in the form of potential free form A contacts. Com Port (see 2.4.2.2 RS-485) connections can be used for connecting the UPS with any machine or units that has standard bus (connector DB9).
