• Do not connect any pins to COM2 [NC].
• Connect the FG terminal line to the shell.
• Always connect the #5 SG (Signal Ground) of the PS-A unit to the connected
device, especially if the connected device is also not isolated. Failure to do so
may damage the RS232C/RS422/RS485 circuit.
• FG and SG terminals are internally connected in the PS-A. When connecting to
another device, be sure not to create an SG shorting loop in your system.
