(b) RS-232 connector specifications
Table6.42 shows the specifications of the RS-232 connector for the CPU module.
(c) RS-232 cable
The following RS-232 cable can be used for connection of the CPU module to the personal computer or HMI.
• QC30R2 (cable length: 3m)
• CH-M096234-*** (manufactured by CHUGAI Co., Ltd.)
Cable with a Mini-DIN connector on one side and without connector on the other side
*** indicates a cable length, which can be lengthened up to 15m in units of 0.1m.
To fix the RS-232 cable to the CPU module, the use of the RS-232 connector disconnection prevention holder (Q6HLD-R2)
is recommended. For the Q6HLD-R2, refer to the following.
