5-1. LAN connection
Use LAN cables to connect the AW-HE50, AW-RP50 and host computer.
When connecting the unit directly to another device, use a crossover cable.
For network connections via a device such as a hub (switching hub), use straight cables.
When a hub is not going to be used, ensure that the length of the LAN cable does not exceed 100 meters (when a cable of
category 5 or above is used).
For further details on the AW-HE50 and AW-RP50 connections and settings, refer to “2-2-2. Example of connections”
(<Basics> Operating Instructions).
For details on the functions available when connection has been made to the host computer, refer to “6. Connections with a
computer”.
5-2. TALLY/GPI
The TALLY/GPI connector features five contact input ports
for controlling the unit from an external device and seven
open collector output ports for outputting the tally and status
information from the unit to an external device.
