*1 The RI/5V can be switched. Use the IPC’s switch to change if necessary.
*2 Set up the SIO type with the DIP Switch. Please set up as follows according to SIO type to be used.
*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.
*4 Set up the SIO type with the BIOS. Please refer to the IPC manual for details of BIOS.

*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.
