Section 3: Electrical installation
3.1Cable length TTL mode
The maximum cable length is 2000 feet when the “TTL” mode is selected.
3.2Cable length Open Collector mode
For the “open collector” mode, the maximum cable length depends on the cable parameters,
If the voltage drop is higher than the voltage required for the frequency input to see a low state, then the configuration will most likely not work for your system. Performance of frequency outputs will vary from this table with setup and frequency input being driven.

The 22 AWG wire characteristics are as follows:
•Capacitance = 20 pF/ft or 20 nF/1000 ft (between two wires)
•Resistance = 0.0168 Ohms/ft or 16.8 Ohms/1000 ft
