    Line loading Routing the serial communications cables The Drive loads the EIA485 serial communications lines as follows: A data communications cable should not run parallel to any power cables, especially any that connect Drives to motors. If parallel runs are 2 unit-loads (EIA485) unavoidable, ensure a minimum spacing of 300mm (12 in) between the 2 unit-loads (EIA485)
