Serial Communication Wiring to CBX100/CBX800
The AV500/AV900 provides serial RS232/RS422 communications to other devices
through the CBX100/CBX800.
• RS232 provides point-to-point communications at distances up to 15 M [50 ft].
• RS422 provides point-to-point communications at distances up to 1200 M [3940
ft]
The following wiring diagrams illustrate the different types of serial communications
avail
able via the CBX100 pin block. It is very important that you make the proper pin
connections.
RS232 with No Handshaking
Use RS232 for a direct connection to a controller, personal computer, or other device.
RS232 provides point-to-point communications at distances up to 15 M [50 ft]. If longer
cable lengths are needed, use RS422.
Use the following illustration as a guide when you want to connect your system to a
device using RS232 c
ommunication with no handshaking.
