5-1 Mounting and Connections
5-1-1 Mounting Location
The PC Link Unit may be mounted to any of the slots on the C2000H CPU
Rack.
The PC Link Unit may be mounted to any of the six slots on the Power Sup-
ply side (right side) of the I/O Rack connected to the CPU Rack.
On C500-BC082 or C500-BC052 Racks, the PC Link Unit may be mounted
to any of the five slots on the CPU side (right side) of the CPU Rack.
On C500-BC081 or C500-BC051 Racks, the PC Link Unit may be mounted
to any of the three slots on the CPU side (right side) of the CPU Rack.
The PC Link Unit can be mounted to any slot on the CPU Rack or an Expan-
sion I/O Rack connected under the CPU Rack except for the two rightmost
slots on the CPU Rack (those closest to the CPU). The PC Link Unit cannot
be mounted to a Slave Rack (a Rack that contains a Remote I/O Slave Unit)
or to an Expansion I/O Rack controlled through a Slave Rack.
5-1-2 Connections
Although connections made directly to the PC Link Units are generally
shielded twisted pair cable, the PC Link System can also contain optical links
between the Link Adapters (see 2-2 Using Link Adapters for details). The
System is thus either all electrical cable or a combination of electrical and
optical fiber cable.
Connectors are provided with the PC Link Units and the Link Adapters. All
cable must be purchases separately. Shielded twisted pair cable is recom-
mended.
Note that RS-485 interfaces (connectors) are used for the PC Link Units, but
RS-422 interfaces (connectors) are used for Link Adapters.
When only electrical cables are used, wiring is 2-conductor half duplex and
should be shielded twisted pair cable.
