Notes:
The PR300 employs a two-wire system for RS-485 communication.
SG: The SG terminal is connected to match the signal level of the RS-485 communication line.
FG: All shielded wires must be connected and then grounded at one place to provide noise protection for
RS-485 communication lines.

externally connected (parts no.: L3035RK)
Use the resistor externally connected without using the built-in resistor of ML2.
Make resistance of the terminator the same as that of the resistor.
*2 When connecting the ML2, use it without returning an echo.
For details, refer to the ML2 RS232-C/RS-485 Converter User’s Manual (IM 77J04L02-01E).
*3 For the UPM100 and UPM101, 120
Ω
resistors are not built in.
Set the communication
method of PR300,
UPM100 and UPM101
to Modbus/RTU.
