WIRING
<Wiring methods>
1) Wiring of one RS-485 computer and one inverter
2) Wiring of one RS-485 computer and "n" inverters (several inverters)
REMARKS
*1. Make connection in accordance with the instruction manual of the computer to be used
with. Fully check the terminal numbers of the computer since they change with the model.
*2. The inverters may be affected by reflection depending on the transmission speed or
transmission distance. If this reflection hinders communication, provide a terminating
resistor. When the RS-485 connector is used for connection, a terminating resistor cannot
be fitted, so use a distributor. Connect the terminating resistor to only the inverter remotest
from the computer. (Terminating resistor: 100
Ω)
