1.1 Overview of Communications Methods
1-5
● E5CN-H
● E5AN/EN-H
Match the communications specifications of the E5CN/AN/EN-H and the host.
When using a 1: N connection, set the same communications specifications in
all of the Units. (Of course, each Unit must have a unique unit number.)

Specify both ends of the transmission path including the host
as the end node (that is, connect terminators to both ends).
Use a terminating resistance of at least 54 Ω.
