·Branch lines can be used together with dedicated fl at cables, VCTF cables or cables exclusively for movable portions.
·Diff erent types of cables cannot be used together within the main line.
·Diff erent types of cables cannot be used together within the same branch line.
·Install the master station at either end of the main line.
·Install a terminating resistor within 20 cm from the master station.
*1:Include the length of any branch from any branch line in the overall branch line length.
