ATTENTION: Do not plug in the data recorder end of the cable
(Catalog No. 2706-NC4) until the Industrial Terminal Cable is
unplugged. If both cables are plugged in at the same time, the
DL20 may be damaged.

other end of the 2706-NC4 Cable to the 1770-SA until the Industrial

baud rate must match the DL20 selection.

for Tape Operations to work properly.
