*3 When making communication between an External Device and COM port on the Expansion slot,
only RS-232C is supported. However, ER (DTR/CTS) control cannot be executed because of the
specification of COM port.
For connection with External Device, use user-created cables and disable Pin Nos. 1, 4, 6 and 9.
Please refer to the IPC manual for details of pin layout.

DIP Switch settings (PL3000 / PS3000 Series)
RS-232C
*5 When setting up communication between an External Device and the RS-232C/422/485 interface
module, use the IPC (RS-232C) or PS5000 (RS-422/485) cable diagrams. However, when using
PFXZPBMPR42P2 in a RS-422/485 (4-wire) configuration with no flow control, connect 7.RTS+
and 8.CTS+, and connect 6.RTS- and 9.CTS-.
When using RS-422/485 communication with External Devices, you may need to reduce the
transmission speed and increase the TX Wait time.
*6 To use RS-422/485 communication on the RS-232C/422/485 interface module, the DIP Switch
setting is required. Please refer to "Knowledge Base" (FAQs) on the support site. (http://www.pro-
face.com/trans/en/manual/1001.html)
*7 Set up the SIO type with the DIP Switch. Please refer to the IPC manual for details of DIP Switch.
The BOX Atom has not a switch to set the RS-232C, RS-422/485 mode. Use the BIOS for the
setting.
*8 For the connection with the External Device, on the user-created cable read as if the connector on
the Display-side is a M12 A-coding 8 pin socket. The pin assignment is the same as described in
the cable diagram. For the M12 A-coding connector, use PFXZPSCNM122.

5 Cable Diagram
The following cable diagram may be different from the cable diagram recommended by Siemens AG. Please be
assured there is no operational problem in applying the cable diagram shown in this manual.
• Please ground the FG pin of the External Device body. Use a grounding resistance of 100Ω2mm2or thicker
wire, or your country's applicable standard. Refer to your External Device manual for more details.
• The SG and FG are connected inside the Display. When connecting the External Device to the SG, design
your system to avoid short-circuit loops.

changes the defined bit in the word, and then returns the updated word value to the word address. In the
meantime, if the word address on the External Device is edited as a result of a ladder program or other means,
this value is overwritten with the word value from the Display.
