6�- RS-485 COMMUNICATIONS
RGU-10C devices feature one RS-485 communications port. The device has uses the MOD-
BUS RTU communications protocol as the standard protocol.
 6.1.- CONNECTIONS
The RS-485 cable must be wired with twisted pair cable with mesh shield (minimum 3 wires), 
with a maximum distance between the RGU-10C and the master device of 1200  metres.
Up to 32 RGU-10C devices can be connected to this bus.
Use an intelligent RS-232 to RS-485 network protocol converter to establish the 
communications with the master device.
