RS422/RS485 (N031)
The optional N031 interface provides an RS422 or RS485 interface (X300). The interface is executed on a 9-
pin D-sub socket.
Fig. 10: RS485 interface X300.
The maximum baud rate on both channels is 115 kbit. The interface parameters are set via the operating
system or from the PLC program.

For RS 485 pins 2 and 3 (data +) must be connected, and pins 7 and 8 (data -).
By default the interface is parameterized as follows on delivery:

Other configurations for the RS485 interface
Other configurations for the RS485 interface can be ordered ex factory. The following options are available:
• N031-0001 RS485 with echo, end point (terminated).
• N031-0002 RS485 without echo, stub (without termination).
• N031-0003 RS485 with echo, stub (without termination).
• N031-0004 RS422 full duplex end point (terminated).
An RS485 interface cannot be configured retrospectively and must always be ordered ex factory as required.
