ROC800-Series Instruction Manual
Revised July-2017 Communications 5-11
used to multi-drop units on a serial network over long distances using
inexpensive twisted-pair wiring.
EIA-422 (RS-422) drivers are designed for party-line applications
where one driver is connected to, and transmits on, a bus with up to ten
receivers. EIA-422 (RS-422) allows long distance point-to-point
communication and the drivers are designed for true multi-point
applications with up to 32 drivers and 32 receivers on a single bus.
The default values for EIA-422/485 (RS-422/485) communication are
19200 baud rate, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity. The maximum
rate is 57.6 Kbps.
EIA-422/485 (RS-422/485) communication modules include LED
indicators that display the status of receive and transmit activity. Refer
to Tables 5-8 and 5-9.

EIA-422/485 (RS-422/485) communication provides EIA-422/485 (RS-
422/485) signals on the Comm3, Comm4, or Comm5 port, depending
on where you have installed the module. Wiring should be twisted-pair
cable, one pair for transmitting, and one pair for receiving. The EIA-422
(RS-422) module uses four wires and the EIA-485 (RS-485) uses two
wires for connectivity.
5.8.1 EIA-422/485 (RS-422/485) Jumpers & Termination Resistors
Four jumpersJ3, J4, J5, and J6are located on the EIA-422/485 (RS-
422/485) communication module (see Figure 5-5). These jumpers
determine the mode in which the module runs (RS-422 or RS-485) and
if the module is terminated.
