: 422/X-PCIe
Termination Resistance
In both the RS-422 and the RS-485 mode, the receiver end of the cable between two stations must be terminated
with a resistor equal to the characteristic impedance of the wire. This is to prevent signal reflections in the wire
and to improve noise rejection. However,
you do not need to add a terminator resistor to your cables when
you use the Fastcom: 422/X-PCIe. The termination resistance is built in.
If you are using the Fastcom: 422/X-PCIe in a multi-drop network, the termination resistor should be disabled from
all units except the first and last (see the RS-485 illustration below). Observe the resistors in the following
drawings and remember that they are built into the Fastcom: 422/X-PCIe (shown below):
