NOTE
The 5 different binary protocols are described in a separate chapter (see chapter 9 "Protocols
NOTE
The settings in the communication area apply to the RS 232 interface of the BPS 8 and to the
settings of the RS 485 interface of the MA 8
-
01/MA 8
-
02. The conversion from RS 232 to
RS 485 in the MA 8
-
01 is implemented entirely in hardware. The communication settings for
the RS 232 interface also apply to the RS 485 for this reason.
