This cable takes the control signals on a RS-232 serial line, and uses these as an external trigger. It provides interface with any peripheral unit that requires or controls transmit/receive synchronization. Note that this cable does not support all the signals in the standard RS-232 specification.
Note
This synchronization method can only be used with RS-232 communication. You can only connect two systems together.
Unless otherwise specified, this cable must be provided by the installation shipyard.
Minimum cable requirements
•  Conductors2 x 4 x 0.5 mm2
•  ScreenOverall braided
•  Voltage: 60 V
•  Maximum outer diameterDefined by the plugs and/or the cable gland
If you need to install a very long cable, increase the cross section.
