RS422 Interconnection
The quick connect cable is the most common method of
terminating signal between two displays. The cable goes
from the RS422 OUT (J34) on the primary display to the
RS422 IN (J32) on the secondary display. See Figure 33
on the right.
If the displays are not back-to-back, or are too far apart for
the interconnect cable to reach, a 4-conductor shielded
cable of the correct length is used as shown in
Figure 34 .
One end will connect at the “RS422 OUT” 6-position
controller board terminal block (A31-TB3) in the first
display, and terminate on the “RS422 IN” 6-position
controller board terminal block (A31-TB2) on the second
display. When not using the quick connect cable, wire
must be in conduit.
