Toa DP-0206 Operating Instructions

7.6.2. RS-485 connections
When the transmission distance to a PC is longer than 10 m, connect to the RS-485 communication port.
Because the normal type of PC has only the RS-232C port, a conversion adapter for converting RS-232C to
RS-485 is required. (Refer to p. 22 "RS-232C/RS-485 Converter.") Connect the adapter to the PC's RS-232C
port, then connect it to the unit's RS-485 port (either of the two ports may be used).
