21.2 Straps, cont.
The illustrations below show how the voltage reference straps
and terminating resistor straps should be fi tted on the RS-422/485
interface boards. When a computer is connected to the line or loop,
the same principles apply. Refer to the computer manuals for infor-
mation on how to appoint the computer “master” and how to set
the termination.
