System Outline
● The main line is the longest route distributed from the controller.
● The branch lines are the routes branched from the main line.
NOTE
The total cable length should satisfy the conditions shown in the following table:
Transmission mode Total cable length (m)
A 100
B 400
C 1,600
The maximum transmission distance (between D and G) will be as follows:
● A mode: 50m
The maximum length is 50m regardless of the cable conductor cross section (0.3 to 2.0mm
2
) and the number
of nodes (1 to 256 nodes).
● B mode

● Voltage drop between +24V and 0V is not considered. For this reason, calculate this volt-
age drop value, and use a local power supply unit, etc. For a detailed description, refer to
the ‘S-LINK V User’s Manual.’
● The conductor cross section of the exclusive 4-core at cable (SL-RCM□) is 0.5mm
2
.
● Wire the S-LINK V system while observing the transmission distance specications de-
scribed above. In addition, use the cables that satisfy the specications described above.
● To select applicable cables, refer to the ‘S-LINK V User’s Manual.’
