RS485 Serial Connection

The RJ45, RS485 flying lead is one metre long. It cannot be removed from the Wallboard; therefore, this must be taken into consideration for the location of the RJ45 terminal box.

Fit the RJ45 terminal box within one metre of the centre of the Wallboard.

The Wallboard should be connected to the host system by utilising a drop off wiring configuration (See Figure 3 below).

Fig. 3

All RJ45 sockets should be wired identically with the terminated RJ45 plug on the final socket with the supplied RJ45 doubler.

Network Addressing

Each display can be configured to display different messages. This is achieved by allocating each display its own network address. Within each display, there is a board containing eight dip switches. "Serial Connection & Dip-Switch Details" on page 99.
