C.2) Inductive Loads

High voltage transients may occur switching inductive loads.

Through the internal contacts these transients may introduce disturbances which can affect the performance of the instrument.

For all the outputs, the internal protection (varistor) assures a correct protection up to 0.5 A of inductive component.

The same problem may occurs when a switch is used in series with the internal contacts as shown in Fig. 9.

D) Serial Interface

For units built with optional RS-485 communication interface.

RS-485 interface allows to connect up to 30 devices with one remote master unit.

In this case it is recommended to install an additional RC network across the external contact as show in Fig. 9

The cable involved in relay output wiring must be as far away as possible from input or communica- tion cables.

The cable length must not exceed 1.5 km at 9600 BAUD.

NOTES:

1)This RS 485 serial interface is insulated.

2)The following report describes the signal sense of the voltage appearing across the interconnection cable as defined by EIA for RS-485.

a)The ” A ” terminal of the generator shall be negative with respect to the ” B ” terminal for a binary 1 (MARK or OFF) state.

b)The ” A ” terminal of the generator shall be positive with respect to the ” B ” terminal for a binary 0 (SPACE or ON).
