4.7.2 RS-485/422 Ports

The RS-485/422 ports can be powered using the internal 3.3V supply or by

connecting an external power supply to the port connector. External or internal power is
selected by jumpers J2 and J3 on the RS-485 module daughter board. To use internal
power, place jumpers J2 and J3 across pins 2 and 3. To select external power, jumpers J2
and J3 must be on pins 1 and 2.

Interface behavior of module Expansion port RS485/RS422 can be made by wiring

Jumpers J4, J5 and J6 on the RS-485 module select the mode of the port

– either RS-485 or

RS-422 mode. If RS485 is required, jumpers J4 and J5 must be connected and jumper J6
disconnected. If RS422 is required, jumpers J4 and J5 must be disconnected and jumper J6
connected.

Jumper placement can be seen in the picture below (RS-485 module is viewed from

the top).

Internal power supply should only be used in the event that it is not possible to

provide an external power supply.
