When serial communications are required for a CP1H CPU Unit, an RS-232C
or RS-422A/485 Option Board can be added.
This enables connection by serial communications to NS-series PTs, Bar
Code Readers, components such as Inverters, and computers without USB
ports (such as when using the CX-Programmer).
