Most probably caused by bad shielding (screening) of the remote
display cabling or by bad shield connections to ground.
Check shielding and shield connections. Ensure that only one
end of the cable shield is connected to ground.
If several remote displays are ‘daisy chained’ together then a
termination resistor may be required on the end display. (See
Section 4.4.3 in this chapter.)
