1.3 Terminal Connections Plug-in terminal block TB1 is provided for connection to the RS-485 Modbus. Note that both input and output terminals are provided to support multi-drop wiring. B(-) A(+) B(-) A(+) 1.3.1 Cabling Cable type should be twisted pair, shielded, and designated for RS-485 communications having a nominal impedance of 120 ohms.
1.3.2 Line Termination Resistor The RS-485 bus requires that the end-of-run device be terminated with a 120-ohm resistor. This is accomplished by setting the LINE TERMINATION switch to “ON” if the MODBUS Interface Card is the last device on the bus. Otherwise this switch should be set to “OFF”. END-OF-RUN MODBUS CARD MODBUS CARD...
