9. Safety Instructions

• Install/service only by qualified electrical personnel.

• De‑energize the network before wiring or replacement.

• Use copper wire only; do not mix wire sizes in one terminal.

• Do not exceed rated voltage/current.

• Keep connectors dry and free of conductive debris.

• CA Prop 65 Warning: Contains lead; may cause cancer/reproductive harm.

10. Troubleshooting

Communication Errors

• Check connector seating; ensure full mating of SUB‑D pins.

• Verify wire termination and screw tightness.

• Confirm correct Interbus‑S pinout (no reversed wires).

Loose Connection

• Retighten screw‑clamp terminals.

• Check for damaged or bent SUB‑D pins.

• Inspect housing for cracks or broken latches.

No Signal

• Check network power supply.

• Verify bus cable integrity (no breaks or shorts).

• Confirm compatibility with PLC/I/O modules.
