In addition, free from the problem of noise, use a covered metal cable duct or a steel protective
duct. The recommended minimum separation between the signal line and the power line in this
case is given in Table 2.3.

duct is used)

Grounding
Ground the terminal block FG terminal and the input/output cable shield to the cabinet ground.
Ground the cabinet ground to earth 100 or less. Do not make a loop in the ground wire; ground
it using the shortest possible length of wire. Do not ground any other device to the MCS1000
ground.
