3-1 Installing the PT 
3-1-5  Wiring the Ground Wire 
The PT is provided with a functional ground (FG:     ) terminal. 
Wire the FG terminal according to the following conditions. 
 
1.  Ground according to Figure when there is difference in potential between the PT and host. 
Do not ground the functional ground of the PT if it is far from the host and one-point 
grounding is difficult.

2.  Do not ground the functional ground  (FG:    ) of the PT if it is mounted to the same panel 
as devices that generate noise, such as motors and inverters. 
Note  Ground correctly to prevent malfunctions caused by noise. 
3-1-6  Peripheral Device Connection Limitations  
Select one of the following combinations when devices requiring power supply are connected 
to port A, port B, and an Expansion Interface Unit on the PT. Use a 5-V Bar Code Reader with 
a current consumption of 250 mA or the equivalent.
