4.2.8 Option "RS232/RS485 interface"
RS232 connection
A compatible RS232 connection is available on a shielded SUB-D9 socket at the rear of the unit.
This can be used to transmit data or programs or as a modem connection. The pin assignment
corresponds to a standard RS232 interface, so that a shielded 1:1 cable can be used here.
RS485 connection
A compatible RS485 connection is available on the rear of the unit. This can be used to transmit
data or programs or as a modem connection. Use a shielded cable.
