Chapter 2: Hardware Installation RS-485/422 Line Interface The Titan/cPCI adapters come with a jumper selectable RS- 485/422 electrical line interface for each port. The RS-485/422 electrical interface is a reliable high-speed serial link that offers superior noise immunity and multi-drop network connectivity. The RS-485/422 electrical interface is also a superset of the RS- 422 electrical interface.
Chapter 2: Hardware Installation Installing the Titan/cPCI Adapter in your System To install your Titan/cPCI adapter in your computer follow these steps: Your Titan/cPCI adapter is very sensitive to static electricity. Make sure you wear an anti-static wristband before you remove the card from the anti-static shipping bag.

4-10 Chapter 4: Appendices – RS-485/422 Interface Full Duplex Mode By not installing pins on jumper block JA and by using features in our driver software, you can run the individual RS-485/422 ports in full duplex mode. This mode is typically used in point to point RS-485/422 situations much like RS-232.
Chapter 4: Appendices – RS-485/422 Interface Line Termination You can use jumper blocks JC, JD, JE and JF to terminate and bias TxD ±, RxD ±, RTS ±, and CTS ± on the individual RS- 485/422 ports through jumper selectable 150 Ω fixed resistors. Please refer to Figure 4 for a partial schematic of the RS-485/422 circuit for the Titan/cPCI and to Figure 1 for the locations of JC, JD, JE and JF.
4-12 Chapter 4: Appendices – RS-485/422 Interface Example The following example shows the settings on JC, JD, JE and JF where RS-485 port 1 is terminated on RTS ± and TxD ±, the RS-485 port 2 is set for bias/termination on RTS ±, TxD ±, CTS ±, and RxD ±, the RS-485 port 3 is not terminated, and port 4 is set for RS-232 on jumper block JB and therefore should not be terminated...
Chapter 4: Appendices – RS-485/422 Interface RS-485/422 Cable Wiring You can wire Titan/cPCI adapters in various ways to communicate with RS-485/422 peripherals. This section describes a few examples of RS-485/422 cabling schemes. Figure 5 describes a 4 wire cabling scheme between a port on the Titan/cPCI adapter to a port on the RS-485/422 peripheral.
4-14 Chapter 4: Appendices – RS-485/422 Interface Figure 6 describes a 2 wire cabling scheme between a port on the Titan/cPCI adapter to a port on the RS-485/422 peripheral. Figure 6: RS-485/422 wiring diagram (2 wire) Technical Tip The RS-485/422 electrical interface consists of a differential signaling scheme.
