RS485 Standard
According to the RS485 standard (TIA/EIA-485: "Electrical
Characteristics of Generators and Receivers for Use in
Balanced Digital Multipoint Systems"), only one driver com-
municating via an RS485 interface may transmit data at a
time. Further, according to U.L. requirements, the RS485
interface may be loaded with a max. of 32 unit loads. A max.
of 29 C-Bus devices may be connected.
IMPORTANT
The cable length affects the baud rate. See Table 7.
Table 7. Baud rate vs. max. cable length for RS485
Baud rate Max. cable length (L)
9.6 - 76.8 kbps 1200 m
For information on wire gauge, max. permissible cable length,
possible shielding and grounding requirements, and the max.
number of devices which can be connected to a bus, refer to
standard EIA-485.
