RS232/TTY
1)
Do not use the Siemens converter cable for connection by TTY/passive, because the Touch
Panel does not supply 5 V.
2)
Use only the approved cables for connection to SIMATIC S7/M7.
3)
Any PROFIBUS-DP bus terminal (except FSK)
4)
For operation via the serial interface, connect either IF1A (RS232/TTY) or IF1B (RS422/485), but
not both. The IF1B interface is configured by means of DIL switches.
