MAIN POINT

 Caution: Contact point signal is only transmitted when AOE-212N is operated under normal

conditions, and please input the signal after checking out the equipment operation status.

ecause data is transmitted in real times, signal will not be transmitted when device is off.

 Example: Connect the device to be controlled to the contact point terminal of AOE-212N from point

‘A’, and insert the control signal from the main building, then device of point ‘A’ can be controlled.

8. RS-232C/RS-422 communication terminal

Display the signals inserted in RS-232C or RS-422 terminal on the rear of AOE-212N on the RS-232C and RS-422 terminals of AOE-212N. For example, if signals, ‘A B C D’ are inserted in the transmitter, signals ‘A B C D’ will be displayed on the receiver.

RS-232C communication: No. 1 pin (Rx), No. 3 pin (Tx), No. 5 pin (GND) RS-422 communication: Tx+, Tx-, Rx+, Rx-

 Transmit and receive data communication using RS-232C/RS-422 ports supports 1:1

 Example: Connect the device to be controlled to the RS-232/RS-422 terminal of AOE-212 from

point ‘A’, and insert the control signal from the main building, then device of point ‘A’ can be controlled.
