This section explains how to connect I/O to the F160 through its parallel inter-
face to input signals such as measurement triggers or output signals such as
measurement results.
Either the I/O terminals or I/O connector can be used for the parallel interface.
The I/O terminals and I/O connector cannot be used simultaneously.
I/O Terminals
When the required control signals are being connected to the I/O terminals,
attach the control wires to the included connector (Phoenix MC1.5/10-STF-
3.5) and then insert the connector into the F160.
I/O Connector
When you want to use the parallel interface to input commands and output
measurement results, prepare a parallel I/O cable and connect it to the I/O
connector. Refer to the Communications Reference Manual for details on com-
munications settings and I/O formats.
Wire the cable carrying the control signals to the connector that was included
with the F160 and insert the connector into the F160. The following diagram
shows the I/O allocation of the F160's I/O terminals. Just wire the terminals
that are needed.

COMOUT
1. COMOUT is connected to COMOUT1 and COMOUT3 of the I/O connec-
tor.
2. Use wire of cross-sectional area 0.14 to 1.5 mm
with a cable length not exceeding 30 m.
Do not input the RESET input immediately after turning ON the power. When
using RESET input to synchronize startup timing, wait at least 1 s after turning
ON the F160's power supply before turning ON the RESET signal.
Use a DC power supply with countermeasures against high voltages (safe
extra low-voltage circuits on the secondary side) for the COMIN terminal. If the
system must meet UL standards, use a UL class II power supply.
