RS485 wiring
The wiring of the RS485 communication should be provided in such a way that the following rules are observed:
Standard maximum link length is 1000 m.
Shielded cable
2
has to be used, shielding has to be connected to the terminal T01 (BATT -).
External units can be connected on the RS485 line in any order, but keeping line arrangement (no tails, no
star) is necessary.
The line has to be terminated by 120 Ohm resistors at both ends.
For shorter distances (connection within one building)
