Figure 3-13. Turning On/Off the Bias Jumper Connectors 

Figure 3-14 shows a modified network structure using a null modem. This structure is another 

alternative to the network structure in Figure 3-11.  

 

Figure 3-14. Alternative Network Structure with a Null Modem 

In this network structure using a null modem, the sections using the RS 485 are isolated so the bias 

resistor can remain turned on for all the DCS units. However, a null modem cable (not included) is 

needed to swap the transmit and receive when running from the RS 232 of a DCS to the RS 232 of 

another DCS. 

3.4.4 

External Contact/Status Port Wiring (Optional) 

The external status port on the MA-251A and MA-252A allows you to connect external contact closure 

devices and map status/alarm indicators. Table 3-10 lists the pin assignments. Section 3.9.1 – 

External Contact/Status Port Inputs

, and Section 3.9.2 – 

External Contact/Status Port Outputs

 give 

more information on using this port.
