Terminal 26-31: type CB / CH / CI / CT - communication RS232 / RS485 / TTL (option)
Full serial communications and computer control in accordance with RS232 (length of cable
max. 15 meters) or RS485 (length of cable max. 1200 meters) is possible.
Read the Modbus communication protocol and Appendix C.
Fig. 10: Overview terminal connectors communication option.
When using the RS232 communication option, terminal 27 is used for supplying the interface.
Please connect the DTR (or the RTS) signal of the interface to this terminal and set it active (+12V).
If no active signal is available it is possible to connect a separate supply between terminals 26
and 27 with a voltage between 8V and 24V.
Terminal 26-31: backlight - type ZB (option):
Note: if the unit is supplied with a power supply type PD, PF or PM, the backlight supply is
integrated, so the text following is not applicable.
To power the backlight, provide a 12-24V DC to terminal 26 (-) and 27 (+). An external trimmer
1kOhm trimmer can be used to tune the brightness of the backlight, or if not desired, a short-cut
between these terminals have to be made which will result in the maximum brightness.
Note: Intrinsically Safe as well as 4-wire RS485 communication is not possible in
combination with type ZB, except if a PD, PF or PM power supply is being used.
