Termination Resistor (for -LRs4 option)
A termination resistor for RS-485 is available by shorting between pin (4) and pin (8) of the
communication option connector. When they are not shorted, there is no termination resistor.
Set the termination resistor if necessary.
Example of termination resistor setting:
Set the termination resistor to the first and end connection devices of the RS-485 connection.
Do not set it to any other devices.
