RS-485 W2/RS-422 interface
In addition to the D-SUB plug, a 6-pos. COMBICON plug is used. The pin assignment is as
follows:
The interface is electrically isolated from all other isolated groups.
In the case of the RS-485 version, the T-BUS DIN rail connector can be used for data trans-
mission. Star structures can also be created (see "Star structure via DIN rail connector and
RS-485 interface" on page 1-12).
T-BUS DIN rail connector
The interface has ground reference and is not electrically isolated from the potential of the
supply voltage.

RS-232 and RS-422 do not support data transmission via the DIN rail connector. Howev-
er, power supply is possible.

In principle, a star structure via the DIN rail connector can only be used in combination
with RS-485 mode.
