RS-232/485/422 connector -
5-pin terminal block for the RS-232/485/422 serial interface used
to control auxiliary equipment. The port can be used in the following modes:
• 2TX/2RX RS-232 interface (RD, TD, RTS, CTS)
• Bidirectional RS-485 half-duplex port for data transmission using
two wires, one combined RX/TX pair
• Bidirectional RS-485 full-duplex port for data transmission using
four wires, one RX pair and one TX pair
• Unidirectional RS-422 port for transmitting and receiving data
using two wires, RX- or TX pair
• Bidirectional RS-422 full-duplex port for data transmission
(point-to-point) using four wires, one RX pair and one TX pair
Note:
When using a long cable and high communication speeds it is recommended to insert a 120 ohm
termination resistor between the RS-485 wires at both ends of the cable.
Audio 1:
Audio in
(pink)
