RS-485 - Party Line Operation
: The RS-485 offers the ability to transmit and
receive over the same pair of wires (RX outputs: pins 3 and 4), and share the same
communication line with multiple stations. To ensure this configuration, only one system
takes the control of the communication line at the time.

The RS-485 protocol offers some advantages such as increased speed over long
distances, improved reliability over similar RS-232 setups, ability to share the
transmission line, less cabling requirements than RS-422 protocol.
Upon power-up or reset, the transceiver is by default in "receiver mode" to prevent
undesired perturbation on the line.
In RS-485 mode, only both ends of the network must be terminated (120 Ohms
resistors). Termination resistors are available: If the board is installed at one end of the
network, these resistors may be installed using the W2 and W3 jumpers.
Pinout:
When configured for RS-422/485 communication mode, the pin assignation for
the onboard Serial Port 2 (J7) appears as follows:
