Connecting to the RS-232C Port on the CPU Unit
Recommended Wiring Methods
We recommend the following wiring methods for RS-232C, especially in environment prone to noise.
1. Use shielded twisted-pair cable for communications cables. The following RS-232C cables are recommend-
ed.
UL2464 AWG28×5P IFS-RVV-SB (UL approved)
AWG28×5P IFVV-SB (not UL approved)
UL2464-SB (MA) 5P×28AWG (7/0.127) (UL approved)
CO-MA-VV-SB 5P×28AWG (7/0.127) (not UL approved)
2. Use a twisted-pair cable for each signal line and SG (signal ground) to connect the CPU Unit to a commu-
nications partner. Also, bundle all the SG lines at the Board/Unit and at the other device and connect them
together.
3. Connect the shield line of the communications cable to the hood (FG) of the RS-232C connector at the
Board/Unit. Also, ground the protective earth (GR) terminal of the Power Supply Units on the CPU Rack and
the Expansion Racks to a resistance of 100 Ω or less. The following example shows connecting SD-SG,
RD-SG, RS-SG, and CS-SG for Serial Communications Mode using a twisted-pair cable using the periph-
eral bus.

Note The hood (FG) is internally connected to the protective earth (GR) terminal on the Power Supply Unit
through the CPU Rack or Expansion Rack. FG can thus be connected by connecting the protective
earth (GR) terminal on the Power Supply Unit. The hood (FG) is also electrically connected to pin 1
(FG), but the connection resistance between the shield and the FG is smaller for the hood. To reduce
contact resistance between the hood (FG) and the FG, connect the shield both to the hood (FG) and to
pin 1 (FG).
