RS232 PORTS
The G306 has two RS232 ports. There is the PGM port and the COMMS port.
Although only one of these ports can be used for programming, both ports can
be used for communications with a PLC.
The RS232 ports can be used for either master or slave protocols with any
G306 configuration.
Examples of RS232 communications could involve another Red Lion product
or a PC. By using a cable with RJ12 ends on it, and a twist in the cable, RS232
communications with another G3 product or the Modular Controller can be
established. Red Lion part numbers for cables with a twist in them are
