It is useful, to activate both the pull-up and the pull-down resistors, which only are necessary
once on every bus line, at the bus master.

NOTICE!
Risk of corrosion!
Unused connectors and slots may corrode if XC devices are used in salt-mist
environments.
Protect unused connectors and slots with TA535 protective caps for XC devices

The following drawing shows an RS-485 bus with the bus master at the line end.
1 Master at the bus line end, pull-up and pull-down activated, bus termination with 120 Ω
resistors
2 Slave within the bus line
3 Slave at the bus line end, bus termination with 120 Ω resistors
If the master is located within the bus line, it does not need a terminating resistor. The pull-up
and the pull-down resistors, however, are necessary:
