Figure 2: RS422/485 Interface Configuration

485Mode Selection OFF : 422 Mode

The transmitter lines TX+ and TX- are always driven

ON : 485 Mode

The transmitter lines TX+ and TX- are switched to high impedance when the device is not actively transmitting data

NE 485 option, OFF for 422

OFF : The receiver is always enabled. In a two -wire setup the receiver will echo back all transmitted data.

ON : The receiver is disabled when the transmitter is enabled. In a two-wire setup the receiver will not echo back transmitted data.

Note: Switch positions 1 and 2 are for port 1 and switch positions 3 and 4 for port 2 on SW3. Switch positions 1 and 2 are for port 3 and switch positions 3 and 4 for port 4 on SW1.
