Please note:
When set to “422” mode, the other settings (AUTO, ECHO and
LOOP settings) will have no effect.
Echo mode is used to detect data collisions. If the echoed data
was not equal to the transmitted data, then data collisions are
occurring.
If you want to set the RS-485 transceiver to “AUTO” mode, you
must duplicate this setting from the Windows Device Manager. You
only need to perform this step once, as this information will be
retained by Windows.
Please note that S1 and S2 have individual settings, and need to
be configured separately.
