Power Supply Wiring Section 4-4
4-4-4 Communications Power Supply Wiring Example
Round Cable I When Round Cable I cables are used, the communications power cannot be
supplied through the communications cables. The power must be supplied to
each Slave and Repeater Unit through other cables. Furthermore, the I/O
power must be supplied separately to the Slave Units which need I/O power,
i.e., Slave Untis with a multi-power supply. There is no need, however, to pro-
vide an external communications power supply to the Master Unit.
