Connection of a PS·Data compatible device

The following are examples when connecting PS·Data compatible devices to the recorder. When connecting a PS·Data compati- ble system controller, it is possible to operate devices connected to the recorder using the system controller.

Use an RS485 cable to connect a PS·Data compatible system controller.

Important:

Select "On" for the termination setting of the devices on both ends of the connection. Refer to the operating instructions of each device on both ends of the connection. The termination setting of the recorder can be set using the mode switch. (Page 51)

When connecting a PS·Data compatible system controller, configure the settings on the [PS·Data setup] tab under the

"Communication" page of the setup menu according to the connection. (Page 93)

"PS·Data" is Panasonic's proprietary protocol. Contact your dealer for devices that can be connected.

Do not assign the same unit address to two or more different PS·Data compatible devices.
