1.6 Expansion Communications Modules
An optional Expansion Communications module (see Figure 1-6)
provides two additional serial communications ports and optionally the
choice of a piggy-backed dial-up modem or piggy-backed 900 MHz
Spread Spectrum radio (or both). Two basic versions of the module are
available. Both serial communication ports support speeds of up to
115.2 KB. The top communication port (labeled C1) supports RS-232
operation while the second port (labeled C2) supports RS-485 operation.
Additionally, you can order the RS-485 port with isolation to 500 Vdc.

several others for either local or remote field device wiring termination.
Refer to Chapter 3 for information on specific I/O modules. Figure 1-7
