If there is +5 V output at the PC side, no external power supply is required for
the NT-AL001.

Since it is necessary to input a voltage of +5 V to the number 6 pin of NT-AL001,
supplying a voltage of 5 V from the host or an external voltage supply for NT-
AL001 is required.
5-1-3 1:N Connection between RS-422A/485 at the PT and RS-232C at
the Host
The connection method in which the RS-422A/485 ports of multiple
NT31/NT31Cs are connected to the RS-232C port of one host in a 1:N connec-
tion is described here.
An RS-232C/RS-422A convertor unit (NT-AL001) is used to convert between
the RS-232C and RS-422A/485 communication methods.
