    Ethernet connection. The DVS hardware can be configured to communicate to SCADA using a serial connection. Please check if your DVS has built-in serial ports or will require an external adapter. The serial communication requires a cable connection between the DVS and the DCE.
  • Page 17 • Step 6: Select the “Flow Control” - the default value is “None”. The second option is “Hardware” and should be used only if the connected port requires this mode. Note: You must set the same values on both ends of the connection: DVS and modem. (Baud Rate, Stop Bits, Parity, Flow Control) Best practice: The RS485 is the recommended connection for cables longer than 10 meters (33 feet) .
