Figure 24: Two-LevelMaster RS-485 bus of same board type using both communication contact pairs
Figure 25 displays two additional LevelMasters connected to the first LevelMaster. The first and second LevelMasters are
intermediate units on the bus. The third must be configured to terminate the bus. Communication connections in intermediate
nodes use both pairs on the RS-485 ports.
Figure 25: Three-LevelMaster RS-485 bus (same board type)
Connection options depend on the type of wire, gauge, and user preference (see section
4.2,
Selecting wire type
). Figure 26 shows a two-LevelMaster bus with boards of the same type, where the
communication connection for the additional LevelMaster is through the same connection pair on the RS-485 port
on the first LevelMaster (instead of using both pairs as in shown in Figure 24). While using both pairs is
recommended, this connection also works and is left up to customer preference.
