RS-485 SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS DATA FORMAT - 10 BIT FRAME (Parity = none) RS-485 communications allows for transmitting and receiving of data over a single pair of wires. This feature can be used for monitoring various values, changing values, and resetting output(s), from a remote location. Typical 8 DATA BITS devices that are connected to a C48C unit are a printer, a terminal, a PLC, an HMI, or a host computer.

In a multiple unit configuration, an asterisk (2AH) must be sent to clear the VALUE IDENTIFIERS MNEMONIC input buffer of all units on the line after a transmit value or print request A (41H) Preset 1 command is sent to a specific unit on the line. The C48C will require a B (42H) Preset 2 maximum of 50 msec to process the asterisk (*).
It is recommended that a “Transmit Value” command follow a “Change The first two digits transmitted are the unit address followed by one blank Value” Command. If this is done, the reception of the data can provide a timing space. The next three characters are the mnemonics followed by three or more reference for sending another command and will ensure that the change has blank spaces.
Serial Connections Troubleshooting Serial Communications When wiring, refer to the numbers listed on the label with the terminal If problems are encountered when interfacing the C48C(s) and host device or description for installing each wire in its proper location. printer, the following check list can be used to help find a solution. For RS-485, the data (transceiver) wires connect to the A(+) and B(-) 1.
