RS422 - Bus length and cable type
The RTS line must be switched on to activate the sender.
The maximum transfer rate of 115 kbit/s depends on the cable type being used.
The material used for the cable should preferably have all or most of the following properties in
order to reach an optimal transfer rate.
RS485 interface operation
The pins of the RS422 default interface (1, 4, 6 and 9) should be used for operation. The pins
should be connected as shown.
The RTS line must be switched each time the driver is sent and received, and there is also no
automatic switch back. This cannot be configured in Windows.
