Wiring for Ethernet Communication

To use the Ethernet communication function, connect a higher-level device with the PR300
with Ethernet communication function using 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX. 10BASE-T/
100BASE-TX are Ethernet connection methods using twisted pair cables. The transmission
rates are 10 Mbps/100 Mbps. In 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX networks, higher-level devices
such as a PC are connected in a star pattern through a hub.

WARNING

To avoid an electric shock, be sure to turn off the power supply source to the equipment
involved before you start wiring.

Use hubs and twisted pair cables that conforms to the Ethernet specifications. The maxi-
mum number of hubs connectable in cascade configuration is 4 for 10ABSE-T and 2 for
100BASE-TX. The maximum allowable length of twisted pair cables is 100 meters.

Read the user’s manual of each device carefully before wiring.
