RS-485 input/output terminal
The RS-485 interface enables external operations.
The figures below show RS-485 input/output terminal pin arrangement and connections.
TSL protocol version 3.1 and 4.0 are supported. Make sure that the same TSL protocol versions are used on external control devices
and the monitor.
For information on specific systems using RS-485 input terminals, contact your supplier.

• A loop-through connection using the RS-485 input and output terminals allows operation of multiple monitors (up to 32 monitors).
• Connect a terminator (120 Ω) between the first and second pin of the OUT terminal on the last monitor in the chain.

Command format
STX (02h) Header (ID) Command Data EXT (03h)
The header (ID) is 8-bit data.
Use the [RS-485 ID SETUP] function in the [SYSTEM CONFIG]
menu to set up.
Setting the most significant bit on an external control device
allows you to switch between TSL protocol support and “Setting
command” (→page64)/“Query commands” support (→page 67).
Example: RS-485 ID SETUP 31 setting (hexadecimal conver-
sion)
Header 1Fh (for support of commands listed below)
Header 9Fh (for TSL protocol support)
When 0 is set in [RS-485 ID SETUP], multiple monitors can be
controlled.
Response formats
1. Setting command response
STX (02h) Command EXT (03h)
2. Query command response
STX (02h) Data EXT (03h)
3. Error response
STX (02h) Error codes EXT (03h)
Error codes
ER001: Invalid command
ER002: Parameter error
When 0 is set in [RS-485 ID SETUP], operation is enabled
but responses are not.
After receiving a monitor response command, there should be
a time lag of approx. 200 ms before a command is transmit-
ted from an external control device.
