•
Be sure to connect a power supply for communication when using the product via RS-485 communication.
•
Use twisted-pair wires for the communication cable and keep the total extension distance up to 10 m (32.8 ft.).
•
Keep 31 units or less for the number of drivers connected.
•
The SG is insulated from the ground for main power supply.
Refer to p.45 for the communication specications.
