RS-232C and RS-422A/485 Wiring Section 3-4
• With NT-AL001-E RS-232C/RS-422 Link Adapter
Note 1. The following cables are available for this connection.
It is recommended that one of these cables be used to connect the RS-
232C port on the Serial Communications Board or Unit to the NT-AL001-E
RS-232C/RS-422 Link Adapter. The recommended wiring for these cables
is shown below.
2. The XW2Z-070T-1 and XW2Z-200T-1 Connecting Cables for the NT-
AL001-E Link Adapter uses special wiring for the DTS and RTS signals.
Do not use these signals with other devices; they may be damaged.
3. The Hood (FG) is internally connected to the ground terminal (GR) on the
Power Supply Unit via the CPU Rack or Expansion Rack. Therefore, FG is
grounded by grounding the ground terminal (GR) on the Power Supply
Unit.
