Data lines RS485
To achieve the highest possible interference immunity, the data lines of the RS485
have to be terminated on both ends. The required resistors are provided in the unit
and can be connected on the screw terminal strip with a jumper (see block diagram,
terminals ZR, ZT).
The polarization of the data lines must be ensured by means of the master.
For the data lines, you always have to ensure that:
Shielded twisted-pair cables of sufficiently large cross-section are used.
The shielding is connected on both line ends.
For the signal ground (SGD, GND, COM) use a wire pair short-circuited on both
ends in the data cable. The shielding may not be used as the signal ground.
A twisted core pair is used each for Tx+ and Tx- and for Rx+ and Rx-. Non-
observance of this instruction causes the protective function of the twisted-pair
cable to be lost!
Improperly terminated data lines cause faults during data transfer.
Interface parameters
Data format, parity, baud rate, protocol and protocol reply are set in menu items 2 to 6.
If protocol 3964 is selected in menu item 5, 8 bit data format and even parity are
automatically set and the menu items 2 and 3 are suppressed.
If setting 'Echo' is selected in menu item 6, the unit transmits the received data
telegrams via the serial interface.
Ignore characters
If the characters to be represented in the display do not start on the first data string
position, you can set in menu item 7 how many preceding characters have to be
ignored.
