Interface Specifications

This section describes the specifications of each interface of the ST Series unit.

„ Serial Interfaces

‹ Serial Interface (COM1)

This interface is used to connect an RS-232C serial cable. A D-Sub 9-pin plug connector is used.

• The ST unit’s serial port is not isolated. When the host (PLC) unit is also not

isolated, be sure to connect Pin #5 SG (Signal Ground) terminal to reduce the

risk of damaging the RS-232C/RS-422/RS-485 circuit.

• When connecting an external device to the ST using the SG terminal, be sure to

check that no short-circuit loop is created when you setup the system.

• The same type of connector is used for COM1 and COM2 of the ST. Be careful

not to mistake one for the other. Connecting them incorrectly disables

communication.

Connecting the RS-232C isolation unit (CA3-ISO232-01) to COM1 enables isolation if

needed.
