3.4 Connecting the Interface Cables
Connecting the RS-232-C Cable
For details on connecting the RS-232-C connector of the RS-232-C communication interface
module to a personal computer, see IM DR231-11E, "DR231/DR232/DR241/DR242
Communication Interface User's Manual."
CAUTION
When (dis)connecting the RS-232-C cable, turn OFF the power of both
the personal computer and the instrument. If the power is not turned OFF,
malfunctions may occur and the internal circuitry may be damaged.
Note
To reduce noise, use ferrite cores (e.g., ZCAT 3035-1330 from TDK) for the interface cable as shown
below. Two ferrite cores should be installed near both ends of the interface cable. If the noise is
particularly bad, use several ferrite cores in series. Use a shielded cable for the interface cable and make a
one-point grounding at the ground terminal of this instrument together with the functional-ground terminal
of the personal computer.
