Not Used
WARNING: After wiring the RS-485 cable, remove all
scraps of wire or foil shield from the electrical panel.
Wire scraps coming into contact with high voltage
conductors could be DANGEROUS!
2. Mechanically secure the RS-485 cable where it enters the electrical panel.
3. Connect all RS-485 devices in a daisy-chain fashion, and properly terminate the
chain (Figure 14).
4. Shield the RS-485 cable using twisted-pair wire, such as Belden 1120A. The cable
must be voltage-rated for the installation.
5. 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 connectors on main board, 0.22 to 0.26 N·m (0.16 to
0.19 ft·lb) for connectors on adapter boards (Figure 15).
