Chapter 6:
RS-422/RS-485 Connections/Operation
These modes support 2 channels - transmit and receive. The
pinouts of the DB-9 male connector are given in Table 4.
Connect only to specified pins for proper operation.
2-Wire RS-485 Connections
Fig. 6.1
2-Wire RS-485: Your cables must bridge pins #1 & #3 and pins #2 &
#9 in order to receive and transmit. Connect from Pin #2 to Data
B(+) of your devices and from pin #3 to Data A(-) of your devices.
Make sure your Mode/Jumpers are set, and that the driver Setting
for DTR Operation is RS-485 Mode in the Device Manager.
Note that the EIA RS-422 Specification labels data lines with an "A"
and "B" designator. Some RS-422 or RS-485 equipment uses a "−"
and "+" designator. In most cases, the "A" line is the equivalent of
the "−" line and the "B" line is the equivalent of the "+" line. Some
device manufacturers may not follow the standard designation for
RS-422 or RS-485, using the A connection for “+” and the B for “-“.
In such cases, reversing the line pair permits operation.
