Communications Installation - RS-485 Link to Operator Interface

RS-485 Link to Operator Interface

The RS-485 port is located below the hinged plastic cover on the top part of the Controller Module. Typically, the cable that interconnects this port to the Operator Interface must be fabricated during installation, because it will probably be necessary to run the cable through conduit.
