Star Configuration
Daisy-Chain Configuration
A daisy-chain configuration loops signals from one unit to the next along one RS-422 control line. A failure on a
daisy-chain cuts off all communications beyond the point of failure. In a daisy-chain configuration, a number of
V422-VI units are connected using the RS-422 IN and OUT RJ-45 connectors. Refer to Figure 4. In this
configuration, a failed V422-VI does not break communication with other units in the system, due to its internal
fail-safe circuit. In this situation, the V422-VI bypasses itself out of the chain.
