or NIM-1W for Foreign System Interface (FSI) by setting all of the switches in SW2
to open (or OFF).
The ports on the RPM can be configured for either RS-232 or RS-485, but not both together. Connection
to the RS-485 port of the RPM has not been tested and is not supported.
The FieldServer can be connected to either Port 1 or Port 3 on the XLS Panel as described in the
connection drawing. Pins 6 and 7 on the Port 2 Connector must be jumpered to enable RS-232 Port 3.
