    DUAL- AND QUAD-PORT USB HUBS 4. Configuration 4.1 Original Configuration This device ships with the following configuration: • 422 mode, • 120 ohm termination, • 1 K-ohm pull-up resistance on RX+, and • 1 K-ohm pull-down resistance on RX-. To change this configuration, you must open the box. Do this by removing the four screws located on the bottom.

    APPENDIX B: Electrical Interfaces B.3 RS-485 RS-485 is backward-compatible with RS-422; however, it is optimized for partyline or multidrop applications. The output of the RS-422/485 driver is capable of being Active (enabled) or Tristate (disabled). This capability allows multiple ports to be connected in a multidrop bus and selectively polled.

  • Page 27: Appendix C. Asynchronous Communication

    DUAL- AND QUAD-PORT USB HUBS Appendix C: Asynchronous Communication In serial data communication, individual bits of a character are transmitted consecutively to a receiver that assembles the bits back into a character. Data rate, error checking, handshaking, and character framing (start/stop bits) are pre- defined and must correspond at both the transmitting and receiving ends.
  • Page 28 APPENDIX C: Asynchronous Communication Because each bit in asynchronous communication is sent consecutively, it is easy to generalize asynchronous communication by stating that each character is wrapped (framed) by pre-defined bits to mark the beginning and end of the serial transmission of the character.
