Electrical Installation - Field and Host Port Connections
Direct connection can only be made if the CIU 888 and the DTE (CIU
888 or host computer system) are grounded at the same point.
In all other cases, ensure there is at least a proper galvanic isolation at
the DTE side. Galvanic isolation can also be obtained by means of a
modem connection between the CIU 888 and the host computer
system.
