NOTE 1: In the RS-422 mode, TX lines are outputs and RX lines are inputs. Connect the serial server TXB(+) line to
the RXB(+) line of the serial device, and the serial server TXA(-) to the RXA(-) of the serial device.
NOTE 2: Ground is signal ground and provides a common mode reference for the RS-422 Receiver and Transmitters.
