For a GE MM300 device that is not recognized by software and communicates via RS485, follow these troubleshooting steps:

1. Ensure correct RS485 wiring:
- Use two-wire RS485 in a daisy chain configuration.
- Install a 120 Ohm resistor in series with a 1 nF ceramic capacitor at each end of the link.
- Use shielded wire and ground the shield at only one location.

2. Check device addressing and termination:
- Confirm proper device address and ensure no address conflicts.
- Verify that termination networks are correctly installed at both ends.

3. Confirm half-duplex communication:
- Ensure that the system supports half-duplex communication and not sending and receiving data simultaneously.

4. If using USB for setup (e.g., USB-to-RS485 converter) and the device is not recognized:
- Repeat the connection procedure 2–3 times.
- If still not recognized, uninstall the USB driver from Device Manager under modems.
- Disconnect the USB cable, wait at least 10 seconds, then reconnect.
- When prompted by the Hardware Wizard, select "No, not this time," then "Install the software automatically," and press "Continue Anyway."
- Finish the installation and check if the USB device appears in the setup software.

These steps help ensure proper hardware connection and correct software recognition of the MM300 device.
