1. Mechanically secure the RS-485 cable where it enters the electrical panel.
2. Connect all RS-485 devices in a daisy-chain fashion, and properly terminate the
chain (Figure 12).
3. Shield the RS-485 cable using twisted-pair wire, such as Belden 1120A. Use cable
that is voltage-rated for the installation.
4. When tightening terminals, ensure that the correct torque is applied: 0.5 to 0.6
N·m (0.37 to 0.44 ft·lb ) for the connectors on data acquisition board, 0.22 to 0.26
N·m (0.16 to 0.19 ft·lb) for the connectors on the adapter boards (Figure 13).
