* NOTE: If the above mentioned power supply is not used, any other power supply used in Europe must be 
compliant with EN/IEC 60950.
** Required RS485 wiring
Always connect the components in a daisy-chain configuration (rather than in a star or other configuration). Star 
wiring is only allowed using the CS-HUB. Be sure to separate the data cable from power wiring (>50V) on the 
cable tray or other cable management.
*** Termination
The termination jumper should be placed on the last user interface (CS-WC or CS-PP), located at the end of each 
RS485 communication line.

2. Clear = RS485 communication ‘–’ 
3. Drainwire = RS485 communication ‘GND’
4. Red = power ‘24VDC’
5. Black = power ‘ground’
