the baud rate is 19200bps. <Fig.1> is only for when using the Hitachi Indus-
trial Equipment System's cable.

turned OFF, you can set the baud rate to 38400bps by using (Cable Dia-
gram2).
*5 Connect to the CPU module's serial port 1 or serial port 2.
*6 Connect to the CPU module's serial port 1.
*7 If the CPU is connected to a GP, a Hitachi Industrial Equipment System's EH-
RS05 conversion cable between the modular jack (8-pin) and the D sub-
connector (15-pin ) is required.
*8 When using Serial Port 2, you will need to change the wiring depending on
the baud rate.
When the baud rate is 4800bps or 9600bps, use Cable Diagram 1.
When the baud rate is 19200bps or 38400bps, use Cable Diagram 2.
Either wiring diagram can be used when using Serial Port 1.
* 9 Due to the size of its connector case, this cable cannot be used for GP-270,
GP-370, GP-377, GP-377R, and GP-2300 series.
*10 The Controller's model number "† " will vary, depending on each controller's
specifications.

2 Cable Diagrams

The cable diagrams illustrated below and the cable diagrams recommended by Hitachi
Industrial Equipment System Co., Ltd. may differ; however, using these cables for
your PLC operations will not cause any problems.

Ground your PLC’s FG terminal according to your country's appli-

cable standard. For details, refer to the corresponding PLC manual.

• Connect the FG line of the Shield cable to either the GP or PLC,

depending on your environment. When using a connector hood
and grounding the FG line, be sure to use an electrical conductor.
The following connection diagrams show examples for connect-
ing a shielded cable to the PLC.
• For the RS-232C connection, use a cable length less than 15m.
• If a communications cable is used, it must be connected to the
SG (signal ground).
• For the RS-422 connection, refer to Hitachi Industrial Equipment
System's PLC manual for the cable length.

When an error develops during communication, there may be a delay be-

fore the error message displays as the unit runs the retry process.

In Procedure 1 for transmission control, when the GP and PLC pro-

gram console (GPCL) are operated at the same time, a PLC COM
ERROR: (02:37) on the GP and a CPU Hold Error may develop in
the GPCL. In such cases, the GP automatically reverts to its normal
state. Run the GPCL operation again.

When an error develops during communication, there may be a delay before

the error message displays, as the unit runs the retry process.

When the GP and PLC program consoles (GPCL) are operated at

the same time, a PLC COM ERROR: (02:37) on the GP and a CPU
Hold Error may develop in the GPCL. In such cases, the GP auto-
matically reverts to its normal state. Run the GPCL operation again.

• When making your own connections, we recommend using Hitachi Densen's

KPEV-SB-3P0.5mm2 cable.
