How to use the table: The left vertical column shows the jumpers for port C. The right 4 vertical columns show the position setting of the jumper at the left for RS-232, RS-422, 4-wire RS-485 or 2-wire RS-485 modes.

NOTES:

Refer to the Setup section for explanations of the RTS/SD, Termination and Clock settings. All ports share the Clock setting.

RS-485 Mode: The SD/RTS jumpers should be set to automatic SD unless your software requires RTS Control.

Note that termination should only be used in systems with both high baud rates (>19200) and over several thousand feet of cable.

Information on RS-422 and RS-485 communications can be found in the B&B Electronics RS-422/485 Application Note (available on our Website).
