2.1.4.3 Connection of the RS485 interface
The following instructions must be observed in order to prevent interferences at
the RS485 interface:
• use in pairs, twisted and shielded cable
• Ground outer shield at one side (prior at interference-free side)
• Connect terminating resistors (120 Ω) at both ends on pair of wires of the
communication bus
• if available, the internal shielding must be laid at the transmitter to ground
• Lay earth cable between the bus nodes
A biasing can be used if there are still interferences. However, this should be
done only once at the communication bus (preferably at the master).
