4.4 RS485 (RS4) option
4.4.1 Introduction
The output option RS485 consists of an additional card (reference RS4), which is installed in the
M1 connection slot of the device's base plate.
The card has a Western-type telephone connection terminal with an output at the rear side of the
device.
Using the RS485 you can set up a communications line by means of which a master unit can
request data from one or more display instruments, like e.g. the display value, switching points,
min. and max. values, tare values (or offset in the case of a thermometer). Furthermore external
functions can be performed like the deletion of the memory for min., max. and tare values and
changes to the switching points.
The model 9180 is also provided with a command you can use to copy the programming into
another device of the same type.
The option can be configured completely via software, i.e. baudrate (1200, 2400, 4800 or 9600),
device addressing (programmable between 00 and 99), type of protocol (DITEL or Standard ISO
1745) and time delay.
Using the RS485 option up to 31 devices can be connected to the main device with output RS485.
The function mode is half-duplex. The channel is only active if the device, which is normally in
receiving mode until a message is obtained, is in operating mode.
