1.2 Customer supplied cable requirements
"Safe" area analog output, alarm output, and RS-232 or RS-485 cables are "control" cables (that is,
not power cables). They must be shielded cables that meet the specifications below:
External diameter
Wire (core) area
Insulation
Nominal voltage
Absolute maximum voltage
Absolute maximum current
Wire resistance
Capacitance @ 800 Hz
