Not all manufacturers use the same connection configuration, so it may be necessary to cross data
lines.
In order to ensure problem-free operation of an RS-485 network, the network should be connected
at both ends. Cables and terminating resistors should be selected in accordance with manual 26-
740 “Installation components for RS-485 networks”.
