Connecting to RS485 Bus
This is an option if the computer has an RS485 interface.
It is recommended that the display module is isolated from any working bus or connected devices and connected
directly to the computer for configuration.
The display module must be activated for configuration mode.
To activate configuration mode the display must be powered up whilst holding down the two front panel keys.
The COM port must be between 1 and 8 to enable connection with Instrument Explorer.
NOTE: If the COM port is provided by a USB to RS485 convertor then see the previous section
regarding Latency as this may apply to your convertor if it is handled by FTDI drivers.
