5.2.4 Power Supply, Group J31
Pin 1 is internally connected to pin 3 and pin 2 is internally connected to pin 4. The
purpose is to make it possible to feed power to any peripheral equipment. Use pins 1
and 2 for power supply connection.

1 SPL Positive DC supply input
2 RTN SPL Negative DC supply input
3 SPL Positive DC supply input, internally connected to pin 1
4 RTN SPL Negative DC supply input, internally connected to pin 2
5.2.5 Not used, Group J32
This group is not used.
5.2.6 RS485 Serial Communication Interface, Group J41
The controller board has one RS485 serial interface for both 2-wire and 4-wire
communication. RS485 supports multi-drop serial networks. The communication can
be in both full duplex (4-wire) and half duplex (2-wire).
Note: If the installation requires long cables or high data speeds it may be necessary to
use termination.
