8.3.2. Rear panel connector X5 (REMOTE)
The X5 remote port communication connector options are
shown in Figure 8.3.2-1. The connector types are listed in Table
8.3.2-1.
Without any internal options, X5 is a TTL port for external
converters. Some external converters (VSE) are attached
directly to the rear panel and X5. Some other types (VEA, VPA)
need various TTL/RS-232 converter cables. The available
accessories are listed in chapter 12 order information.
2&4-wire galvanically isolated RS-485 (Figure 8.3.2-2), Internal
options for fibre optic (Figure 8.3.2-3), and Profibus (Figure
8.3.2-4) are available. See chapter 12 order information.
