2.4.2 Wiring TTL Interface
Table 2.4 shows the connector locations for Tx and Rx
signals for the TTL interface. The ground and +5Vdc can be
connected according to Table 2.3.
2.4.3 Wiring RS485 Interface
RS485 interface uses a two-wire communication system (one for transmitting and one for
receiving) plus a common wire to connect to the shield of the cable. It is recommended
to use a shielded cable with one twisted pair.
Use of twisted pair and shield will significantly improve noise immunity.
Figure 2.5 shows multi-point, half-duplex RS485 interface connections for the iServer.
Figure 2.5 Multi-point, Half-Duplex RS485 Wiring
Value of the termination resistor is not critical and depends on the cable
impedance.
Table 2.5 shows RS485 half-duplex hookup between the iServer serial port and device
with RS485 communication interface.
