6.3. Wiring Method

CAUTION
Please read the following carefully when wiring the power supply wires.
Turn OFF the power before wiring. A short circuit may damage internal circuits or cause an electric shock.
Pay close attention to the wiring to avoid mistakes. Incorrect wiring will burn out internal circuits.
As shown in the wiring example, be sure to insert a fuse on the power supply side for external equipment protection. It willprotect the power supply from burnout in case of a wiring error.
Please read the following carefully when wiring LAN cables.
Conﬁrm that the network is indoors and the LAN cable is not routed outdoors.
Failure to follow this instruction could result in equipment damage due to transient voltage from lightning.
The LAN cable should have an RJ-45 connector and be rated for Category 5e or higher (Category 6 or higher
recommended). (You can use either a straight through or crossover cable.)
When wiring, do not tug the power supply wires, LAN cable, or RJ45 connector, nor stuﬀ them into the main unit.

8. Operation

Point● If each control operation is executed at the same time, it is executed in the following priority order.
･ Clear > Signal Tower motion control > Detailed motion control･ When register address 17 (11H) "Signal Tower pattern (all tiers)" and register addresses 19 (13H) to 22 (16H) "Signal
Tower pattern (1 to 4 tiers)" are used, register address 17 (11H) "Signal Tower pattern (all tiers)" has priority.
● When the clear is executed, the light is oﬀ and the buzzer is muted.
● All high data readings are set to 00H.

not take place.
● When sending "ﬂash" or "ﬂashe", Make sure to specify "color" and "buzzer" at the same time.
● “ﬂash" takes precedence over "ﬂashe".
● The combinations of parameters that you can send simultaneously are as follows.
･ color&buzzer･ color&buzzer&ﬂash･ color&buzzer&ﬂashe
