Connecting to the Host Computer
Can be connected to a host computer with RS-232-C, RS-422-A, RS-485 ports.
• In the case of RS-232-C, a converter is used as shown in the diagram below.
• For information on recommended converters, refer to “Converters” in the latter.
• Dip switch needs to be changed depending on whether it is a two-wire system or four-wire sys-
tem. Refer to “3.5 RS-422-A/RS-485 Interface Parameter Setting Procedure.”
In the case of four-wire system
In general, the recorder is wired to the host computer using a four-wire system. When four-wire
system is used, the send and receive wires need to be crossed.
