1.4 Combination Connection
When performing control and adjustment, it is easiest to connect several panels to one PC.
By performing a combination connection and assigning IDs to the displays, it is possible to control and adjust several
panels at the same time or separately.
Connection method:
Connect the panels as shown below. Control and adjust the units with the PC.
Only the combination IN terminal or RS-232C terminal can be used at the same time on one panel. Connecting them
at the same time could cause errors or cause other problems so do not connect them at the same time. Also,
do not connect pairs of combination IN terminals or combination OUT terminals. Doing so could cause errors or
other problems.
It is possible to use a general-purpose mini DIN 6-pin (straight) cable for the combination cable.
Note
To output RS-232C signals from the combination OUT terminal, an ID must be assigned.
For details, refer to section, 5.5.3, “ID Assignment" (pg. 218).
