2.9.3 RS-485 Connections to a Modbus Device
2.9.3.1 4-Wire Connections
The 9009 and 9099's RS-422/RS-485 differential serial interface is a four-wire
interface with transmit (SD) and receive (RD) signal pairs with an optional
internal termination network on the receive pair. To interface the 9099 to a
4-wire Modbus device do not jumper the signal pairs together. Configure the
unit for full-duplex, RS-485 operation. Use the “SYST:COMM:SER:RS485
OFF” command to configure the firmware. The OFF setting causes the unit to
keep its serial transmitter on when not transmitting which keeps the receiving
devices from receiving noise and eliminates the need to terminating networks
at their end of the cable. The 9099’s TX pair goes to each slave device’s RX
input. Set jumpers W4 and W8 for RS-485 and move the W13 jumper to W7
FD position as directed in Table 2-3.
2.9.3.2 2-Wire Connections
To interface the 9009 or 9099 to a 2-wire Modbus device or RS-485 network,
the SD and RD signal pairs should be jumpered together internally as shown in
Figure 2-8 and the unit has to be configured for half-duplex, RS-485 operation.
Use the “SYST:COMM:SER:RS485 ON” command to configure the units.
The ON setting tristates the serial transmitter when the 9099 is not transmit-
ting which free’s the network for the Modbus device’s response. Add jumpers
W9-W12 to jumper the signal pairs together and to use the internal termina-
tion network. Set jumper W7 to HD. See Table 2-3 for the complete jumper
settings. Figures 2-8 through 2-10 show the two-wire RS-485 connections to
various Watlow controllers.
2.9.3.3 Internal Termination Network
Two-wire RS-485 networks need a termination network to bias the lines in the
‘mark’ state when neither unit is transmitting. This prevents the receivers from
inputting noise when nothing is being transmitted. The 9009 and 9099’s have
an internal termination network which is fine for cables up to 200 feet long.
For longer cables, use a termination network at each end of the cable. Insert
jumpers W11 and W12 to use the 9099’s internal termination network.
