To connect the DTAM Micro to an RS-232 device:

1. Make sure that the DTAM Micro is not connected to a voltage source.

2. Use the proper cabling to connect the DTAM Micro communications port

to the port of the controller (PLC-5 channel 0 or SLC 5/03, SLC 5/04
RS-232 port).

Use cable, Catalog No 2707-NC3 for PLC-5 channel 0 connection.

Use cable, Catalog No. 1747-CP3 for SLC 5/03, SLC 5/04 or 5/05 port
connection.
This cable requires a 9-pin female to male gender adapter.

If you need to make your own cable, refer to the cable diagrams in
Appendix B. The maximum recommended cable length is 50 feet
(15.2 meters).

3. Make sure that the communication parameters of the DTAM Micro

terminal match the host device.

4. Apply power and verify that communications are established.
