NOTE: The RTU port ground signal connection
is not required but may be connected if needed.
A one- to two-foot length should be enough for
the four-wire RTU cable (with 25-pin female and
15-pin male D connectors) between the PLC and
the 2/4 wire converter. Only Port 2 can be used
for RTU communication on the 28-point Micro
90.
