CX1020-N031/41 connections
The CX1020-N031 system interface features two RS422 / RS 485 interfaces, COM1 (X310) and COM2 (X311) (9 pin Sub-D plug connector). If there is need for more than two serial interfaces two further RS422 / RS485 interfaces, COM3 (X410) and COM4 (X411) (9 pin Sub-D plug connector) can be added to the system via the system interface CX1020-N41. The maximum baud rate on all channels is 115 kBit. The pin assignment for all interfaces is equal and described below. The interface parameter can be set in the operating system or in the PLC program.

Setting the interface parameter
If the system interface CX1020-N031/N041 resides at the end of the CX1020-system block, it is easy to access the dip switches. The dip switches for the configuration of the RS485/422 interfaces can be found at the left side of the module. If you remove the grey cover you can see the switch:
The upper switch sets the parameters for the upper interface, the lower switch sets the parameter for the lower interface. The system must be powered down, if the settings of the switches are changed! The settings for default use should be mentioned by ordering the interface module.
