Note: The increased use of LAN networks has made the RS-485 interface
somewhat obsolete, because RS-485 requires a special communication
protocol and a dedicated wiring system limited to 1,200 m (4,000 ft). We
only recommend RS-485 for existing applications and advice the customer
to consider a LAN network solution for new applications.
