NOTICE
Communication may be affected by reflection depending on the transmission speed
and/or transmission distance. Connect a Terminating resistor if reflection interferes
with communication. For connection using the PU connector, use a splitter since the
termination resistor cannot be fitted.
Connect the Terminating resistor to only the remotest drive unit from the computer.
(Terminating resistor: 100
Ω
)
Connect the terminals marked *1 in accordance with the instruction manual of the
computer used.
Fully check the terminal numbers of the computer as they differ between models.
