Serial Interface Connections

This interface is used to connect the S-Panel PC to remote equipment, via a cable. The connector is a D-Sub 9-pin plug connector.

By using a long PLC cable to connect to the S-Panel PC, it is possible that the cable can be at an electrical potential that is different from the electrical potential of the panel, even if both are connected to ground.

The serial port that is not isolated has the signal ground (SG) and the functional ground terminals connected inside the panel.

DangerElectrical_Color.gifDanger_Color.gifDANGER

ELECTRIC SHOCK

oMake a direct connection between the ground connection screw and ground.

oDo not connect other devices to ground through the ground connection screw of this device.

oInstall all cables according to local codes and requirements. If local codes do not require grounding, follow a reliable guide such as the US National Electrical Code, Article 800.

Failure to follow these instructions will result in death or serious injury.

Any excessive weight or stress on communication cables may disconnect the equipment.

Caution_Color.gifCAUTION

LOSS OF POWER

oEnsure that communication connections do not place excessive stress on the communication ports of the Magelis Industrial PC.

oSecurely attach communication cables to the panel or cabinet.

oUse only D-Sub 9-pin cables with a locking system in good condition.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment damage.

RS-485 Interface Specificity

NOTE: All the pins of the RS-422 default interface should be used for operation.

The RTS line must be switched each time the driver is sent and received. There is no automatic switch back. This cannot be configured in Windows.

The voltage drop caused by long line lengths can lead to greater potential differences between bus stations, which can hinder communication. You can improve the communication by running a ground wire with the other wires.

NOTE: When using RS-422/485 communication with PLCs, you may need to reduce the transmission speed and increase the TX Wait time.
