CAUTION:
To ensure that all devices in a daisy-chain are at the same potential, it is imperative
that the common terminals of each RS485 port are tied together and grounded only
once, at the master or at the 845. Failure to do so may result in intermittent or failed
communications.
The source computer/PLC/SCADA system should have similar transient protection devices
installed, either internally or externally. Ground the shield at one point only, as shown in
the figure above, to avoid ground loops. Correct polarity is also essential. The 845 IEDs
must be wired with all the positive (+) terminals connected together and all the negative (–)
terminals connected together. Each relay must be daisy-chained to the next one. Avoid
star or stub connected configurations. The last device at each end of the daisy-chain
should be terminated with a 120 ohm ¼ watt resistor in series with a 1 nF capacitor across
the positive and negative terminals. Some systems allow the shield (drain wire) to be used
as a common wire and to connect directly to the COM terminal; others function correctly
only if the common wire is connected to the COM terminal, but insulated from the shield.
Observing these guidelines ensure a reliable communication system immune to system
transients.
