4.2.9. Selecting the Serial Data Failsafe Bias
To simplify installation, the 7707IT provides a selectable failsafe bias for balanced serial data signals. This
bias should be active as required by the specific application, and common practice. The failsafe bias will
apply a differ200mV bias to a properly designed RS-485 system while in the idle state. As a
protection feature, the failsafe bias will not become active unless the termination is also active for the
respective channel. The failsafe bias circuit of the 7707IT will function properly over the specified input
common mode range. Selection of the failsafe bias is done using the card-edge interface or through
