2.5 Transmitter Turnaround Delay
By the nature of the operation of the unit there will be a time delay in the switching of the unit from
transmit to receive. This time can be fine tuned to the particular installation and the length of the cable
run, resulting in quicker operation. This operation can only be tested on a trial basis and is
accomplished by the setting of SW1 Bits 1-3 on the 485F25 as described in Table 2.1, and cutting or
resoldering the tracks between the pads of J2 on the 485F9 as shown in
Figure 2.3.
