configuration. When you use RS-485, the line terminator resistors are connected through
S23 and S24 jumpers and must be ON only on the line end device. The protocol used
is SLINK3, detail provided in separate manuals.

In this configuration you need to join pin 5 with pin 8 and pin 9 with pin 6 of X3
connector. DGF connectors are female connectors.
The configuration without signal isolation is possible only with short connections: for
example, with HIBS during the card configuration. On the drive, you need to use
signal isolation as described below.
Figure 1.2.2.2 shows a single-point connection between a PC or PLC RS-232 interface
and one 6KCV301DGF.
An adapter RS-232/485 is necessary to convert the PC RS-232 COM to an RS-485
signal. A simple two wire twisted cable is necessary to transmit the RS-485 differential
signals TXA/RXA - TXB/RXB.
