corresponding Port Names will appear as shown in Figure 13.

RS485-1 Bias and Termination Resistors
RS485-1 is equipped with a three-position slide switch which can be used to switch its bias resistors OFF
(position "MID" – this is the default), ON (position "BIAS"), and ON with an additional 150Ω termination
resistor (position "END").
Figure 14: RS485-1 three-position slide switch
The recommended slide switch setting depends upon the location and usage of the given CIPer Model 50 –
see Figure 15 through Figure 17 and Table 5; it also depends upon the selected communication protocol
(BACnet MS/TP, Panel Bus, or Modbus RTU Master communication, respectively).
