(PVI-10.0/12.5-OUTD-xx Rev:1.2)
Please note that - unlike Aurora PVI-232485 - such devices may require implementation of
external termination impedance.
The following diagram shows how to connect multiple units in a daisy-chain configuration.

NOTE
:
The RS-485 link supports up to 32 inverters. Choose any given address
between 2 and 63
NOTE
:
if one or more inverters are added to the system at a later time, when
an RS-485 link is used, remember to set back to OFF the switch of the
inverter that was the last one.
