Mounting and connecting
■ Mounting on the a DIN rail
1
Fit the tab of the lower part of the main
unit to the DIN rail. While inserting the
main unit in the direction of arrow 1,
push the body in the direction of arrow
2.
2
To detach the main unit, while pushing
the main unit in the direction of arrow
1, pull the body in the direction of
arrow 3.
When using a fixture (OP-60412), mount the main unit as shown below.
■ How to connect to the sensor amplifier
The RS-232C Communication Unit DL-RS1A is used by connecting it to a
sensor amplifier. The connection method varies according to the mounting
type of the sensor amplifier to connect to.
• Refer to the "RS-232C Communication Unit DL-RS1A
Users' Manual" (page 9) for details about the
connectable sensor amplifiers.
• Refer to the Instruction Manual of each sensor
amplifier for details about how to add the sensor
amplifier.
●
Connecting to a DIN rail mounting type sensor amplifier
1
Detach the expansion protective cover of the sensor amplifier to
which the communication unit is to be connected.
2
Mount the RS-232C Communication Unit DL-RS1A on the DIN rail
and connect it to the sensor amplifier.
Push and fix the RS-232C Communication Unit DL-RS1A to make
sure there is no space between the communication unit and the
sensor amplifier.
3
Mount the end units (OP-26751: a set of two pieces) on both sides of
the sensor amplifier and the RS-232C Communication Unit DL-RS1A,
then fix the end units with screws on the upper part of each end unit
(2 points x 2 units).
The mounting method of the end unit is the same as that of the RS-232C
Communication Unit DL-RS1A.
●
Connecting to a panel mounting type sensor amplifier
1
Connect the sensor amplifier to the RS-232C Communication Unit DL-
RS1A using the optional expansion cable (OP-35361).
2
Detach the sensor amplifier connector (DIN rail mounting type) of the
RS-232C Communication Unit DL-RS1A with pliers and mount the
attached expansion connector.
●
Connecting to a large display type sensor amplifier
1
Connect the sensor amplifier to the RS-232C Communication Unit DL-
RS1A using the optional expansion cable (OP-35361).
2
Detach the sensor amplifier connector (DIN rail mounting type) of the
RS-232C Communication Unit DL-RS1A with pliers and mount the
attached expansion connector.
CAUTION
When connecting the RS-232C Communication Unit
DL-RS1A, be sure to check the power of sensor
amplifier is OFF before performing the operation.
Performing the operation when the power of sensor
amplifier is ON may damage the equipment.
CAUTION
Refer to the figure below, and check that the sensor
amplifier connector (for DIN rail mounting type) on
the side of the RS-232C Communication Unit DL-
RS1A is not mounted at an angle. Connecting to the
sensor amplifier with the connector diagonally may
damage the equipment.

CAUTION
Be sure to insert the RS-232C Communication Unit
DL-RS1A to the sensor amplifier at the end. Turning
on the power with diagonal insertion or improper
insertion may damage the equipment.
CAUTION
• Turn OFF the power before connecting the
expansion cable and connect securely. Diagonal
or otherwise improper insertion may damage the
equipment.
• Inserting or pulling the cable when the power is
turned ON may damage the equipment.
