4.1.2

Direct RS-422 connection (single unit)

The Discovery terminal is linked to the Back Office by means of a Separator

Box, converting the Back Office RS-232 signal into an RS-422 signal, bridging a

physical distance of maximum 1200 meter. The box also provides electrical

isolation to prevent communication ports to be damaged due to ground

potential differences. The RS-422 cable will be supplied and installed by the

Scantech Distributor. See Appendix A for the cable specifications. For test and

demo purposes a short RS-422 cable is available at Scantech under P/N

A351701.
