Software Setup
TXD channel, and disables its TXD drivers. The other RS485
devices remain in the receive only mode when they are not being
addressed, they do not transmit any data at all. Figure 4-5 gives the
jumper settings for the serial card in the RS485 Full Duplex mode.

Both jumpers left unconnected (not shorted).

e: The receiver end of MAIN line terminated in characteristic
impedance, stubs off the main not terminated.
Optional Grounding Arrangements.
Proper operation of the cable circuit, according to TIA
EIA:
485 A (1995) requires that the cable ground shield is not
connected directly to the equipment ground shield. A current
limiting resistor should be used in series with the shield to avoid
possible large current flow due to differences in ground potential.
Any one of the methods shown in Figure 4-7, below can do this.
