  • Page 21: Digital Rs485 Communications

    Page 20 of 29 Digital RS485 Communications The H6 inclinometer communicates over a RS485 half-duplex communication bus using a Rieker-specific packet format which is described in this section. This communication can be used to read inclination angles from the device, as well as configure the various device settings.
