Safety Precautions
• Be sure to confirm that power is not
being supplied to the GP3000H and
the external devices before connecting
this cable. Failure to do so can result in
an electric shock.
• Do not modify this cable, since it may
result in a fire or electric shock.
• This cable is not appropriate for use
with aircraft control devices, aerospace
equipment, central trunk data
transmission (communication) devices,
nuclear power control devices, or

Types of cables
• This cable cannot be used when connecting the GP3000H to the GP3000H Conversion
Adapter.
Connecting and removing this cable
• Dropping this cable’s connector or hitting it against hard objects could result in
damage to the connector.
• Be sure to connect the GP2000H Conversion Adapter first, and connect the
GP3000H last. Otherwise, the RS-232C/RS-422/RS-485 circuit may fail.
1. Connecting the GP2000H Conversion Adapter
Attachment
(1) Insert the D-Sub connector of this cable into the 37 pin D-Sub connector of the GP2000H
Conversion Adapter, and fasten the connector in place using the two screws. Use a
tightening torque of 0.5N•m.
• Avoid bending this cable excessively and pulling this cable with excessive force. Excessive
bending and pulling can result in cable disconnection.

2. Connecting the GP3000H
Attachment
(1) Before connection, remove the cable's
connector cap and GP3000H connector
cover. To remove the cable's connector
cap, pull out the cable by holding the
cable connector as shown.
• To disconnect the cable from the connector
cap, be sure to hold the cable connector
and pull it out. If you hold other parts of
the cable (lock ring, etc.), the cable cannot
be disconnected.
(2) Insert the cable connector to the
GP3000H cable connector until it clicks.
Match the points and insert the cable
connector, as shown below.
• Be sure to insert the cable connector as
shown. Failure to do so might result in
damage to the connector.
(3) Turn the cable connector lock ring to
lock the connector, so that the small 
mark (for LOCK) on the lock ring is
aligned with the small mark on the
cable connector.
Removal
(1) Unlock the connector that has been
locked in the mounting procedure. (Turn
the lock ring as shown so that the small
mark is displaced from the mark).
Then, pull out the cable by holding the
cable connector.
• To disconnect the cable, be sure to hold the
cable’s connector and pull it out. If you
hold other parts of the cable (lock ring,
etc.), the cable cannot be disconnected.
Pull out this cable by holding
the cable connector.

2. Connection with external power
supply
To avoid an electric shock, prior to
connecting the GP3000H’s power cord
terminals to the power terminal block,
confirm that the GP3000H’s power
supply is completely turned OFF, via a
breaker, or similar unit.
Any other power level can damage both
the GP3000H and the power supply.
When the FG terminal is connected, be
sure the wire is grounded.
• To improve noise resistance, be sure to use
the Common Mode Filter included with
this product.
• The common mode filter uses a metal
chassis. When installing the common
mode filter on the panel:
- IF you can ground FG, the provided FG
wire is not required.
- IF you cannot ground FG, use the
provided FG wire and the M3 screw to
fasten the common mode filter and
provided FG wire.
Power Supply Cautions
• Input and Output signal lines must be
separated from the power control cables
for operational circuits.
• The GP3000H’s power supply cord should
not be bundled with or kept close to main
circuit lines (high voltage, high current), or
input/output signal lines.
• To improve noise resistance, make the
power cord as short as possible.
• If the supplied voltage exceeds the
GP3000H’s range, connect a voltage
transformer.
• Between the line and the ground, be sure to
use a low noise power supply. If there is an
excess amount of noise, connect a noise
reducing transformer.
• Use voltage and noise reducing
transformers with capacities exceeding
the GP3000H’s Power Consumption
value.
• Connect a surge absorber to handle
power surges.
• Be sure to ground the surge absorber
(E1) separately from the GP2000H
Conversion Adapter (E2). Select a
surge absorber that has a maximum
circuit voltage greater than that of the
peak voltage of the power supply.

Grounding Cautions
• Be sure to create an exclusive ground for
the Power Cord’s FG terminal. Use a
grounding resistance of 100 , a wire of
2mm2or thicker, or ground using your
country’s applicable standard.
• The SG (signal ground) and FG (frame
ground) terminals are connected internally
in the GP3000H.
When connecting the SG line to another
device, be sure that the design of the
system/connection does not produce a
ground loop.
• The grounding wire should have a
diameter greater than 2 mm2. Create the
connection point as close to the GP3000H
as possible, and make the wire as short as
possible. When using a long grounding
wire, replace the thin wire with a thicker
wire, and place it in a duct.
Input/Output Signal Line Cautions
• All GP3000H Input and Output signal
lines must be separated from all operating
circuit (power) cables.
• If the operating circuit (power) cables
cannot be separated, use a shielded cable
and ground the shield.

Restrictions
Please be aware of the following restrictions
when using the GP2000H RS-232C/RS-422
Conversion Adapter and this cable to connect
the GP3000H to peripheral equipment.
• The GP3000H cannot be connected to
Ethernet networks.
• For GP3000Hs mounted with key
switches, outputting to peripheral
equipment by turning the GP3000H
key switch is not possible. However,
the GP3000H’s power supply can be
turned ON/OFF by turning the
GP3000H key switch.
• This cable cannot be unplugged from
the GP2000H Conversion Adapter
without causing an emergency stop by
providing an external safety circuit.
• The operation switch and function keys
cannot be used for functions involving
signal outputting to peripheral
equipment. Example: Function keys
designed to activate external buzzers,
etc.
• Data set ready “DR (DSR)” signals
cannot be used when connecting to
peripheral equipment using RS-232C
connections.
• The GP2000H Conversion Adapter
does not comply with UL dust and drip
proofing standards.
• Pro-face’s GP3000H Conversion Adapter
(model: AGP3000H-ADPCOM-01) and a
dedicated cable (sold separately) are
necessary to overcome these restrictions.
Please refer to “Accessories” in “Chapter 1
Overview” in the GP3000H Series
Hardware Manual.
UL/c-UL Approval
The system constructing the following three
components does not conform to UL/c-UL
standards:
• GP3000H
• This cable
• GP2000H RS-232C/RS-422 Conversion
Adapter
When you apply for UL/c-UL standards, the
