RS485
Use RS485 to create a multi-drop network containing up to 32 devices.

Note that when a port is set to RS485, both RS232 and RS485 can be used simultaneously
if
flow control signals DTR and DSR are not used.
•
Note that the ports are not isolated. If the controller is used with a
non-isolated external device, avoid potential voltage that exceeds
± 10V.
To avoid damaging the system, all non-isolated device ports should
relate to the same ground signal.
Caution
•
Use shielded, twisted pair cables.
•
Minimize the stub (drop) length leading from each device to the bus.
•
Ideally, the main cable should be run in and out of the network
device.
•
Do not cross positive (A) and negative (B) signals.
Positive terminals must be wired to positive, and negative terminals
to negative.
