Installation
Connecting channel inputs
Channel input devices are attached to standard interface connectors
or to the RS-232 port on the rear of the ND 2100G. Many device
interfaces are available to match the wide variety of encoder and
transducer devices that can be used with the ND 2100G. The number
and type of channel input connectors will vary depending on the
application. Four standard interface connectors are shown here as
examples.
Connect the channel input devices tightly to their connectors. A
channel number is provided near each connector.
Channel input devices must be configured using the Channels setup
screen. Refer to "Channels setup screen" on page 99
Systems can be configured at the factory to support a combination of
single-channel and multi-channel RS-232 networked input devices.
These configurations can include one of the following:
„ 1, 4 or 8 single-input channels
„ Up to 16 networked RS-232 input channels
„ A combination of single-input channels and networked RS-232 input
channels for a total of up to 16 channels
