4.2.3 Configuration of the network
The FP1500 allows the interconnection of up to 10 control units and/or repeaters on a
network. The connection of control units is made through the RS485 serial port on the
main board.
Figure 15. Connection for RS485
The cable must be connected on the A and B terminals of each of the control units on the
network.
(See section 3.5.1)
To avoid communication problems, you must install a 150-Ohm / ¼ W resistor on the first
and last control units.
Once the control units are connected with their system installed, they must be configured
to form part of the network. Proceed as follows:
