RS485 Half-Duplex Interface
The RS485 half-duplex (3 wires + shield) interface is used for polled
communication protocols.
It can be used in a master/slave layout or for Multidrop connections with a
Datalogic Multiplexer, (see par. 2.6.4 and 2.6.5).
The connector pinout follows:

This interface is forced by software when the protocol selected is MUX32

protocol.

In a Multiplexer layout or for slaves, the Multidrop address must also be set

via serial channel by the WinHost utility or by ESC sequences.
