RTS = Request to send

GND = Signal/Chassis Ground
The cable shield is to be grounded at both ends. For extremely EMC-prone environments, the GND may be
connected via a separate individually shielded wire pair to improve immunity to interference.
The following table lists the assignments of the DSUB port for the various serial interfaces.

Pin 7 also carries the RTS signal with RS232 level when operated as RS485 interface. Pin 7 must therefore not be
connected!
Termination
The RS485 interfaces are capable of half-duplex service with the signals A/A’ and B/B’ with a common reference
potential C/C’ (GND). It must be checked that the terminating resistors are connected only for the respectively
last device of the bus but not for all other devices of the bus.
The jumpers for the terminating resistors are located on the interface module RS485 (see Figure 3-17) or
PROFIBUS RS485 (see Figure 3-18).
It is also possible that the terminating resistors are arranged externally (Figure 3-19).
If the bus is extended, verify again that only the last device on the bus has the terminating resistors
connected, and that the other devices on the bus do not.
Time Synchronisation Interface
Either DC 5 V, DC 12 V or DC 24 V time synchronisation signals can be processed if the connections are made
as indicated in the table below.
