RS 485 COMMUNICATION
HI 23xy2 and HI 24xy2 are provided with an RS485 port.
RS485 standard is a digital transmission method that allows
long lines connections. Its differential transmission system
makes this standard suitable for data transmission in noisy
environments.
SPECIFICATIONS
The RS485 standard is implemented in EC process meter
controllers with the following characteristics:

CONNECTIONS
The connections for the 4-pin RS485 terminal
provided (#1 on page 8) are as follows:
The instrument has no internal line termination. To terminate
the line, an external resistor equal to the characteristic line
impedance (typically 120 ohm must be added at both ends
of the line.
