Termination and Biasing
USR60x converters include internal biasing resistors on the RS-422/RS-
485 interfaces.
The values for internal biasing resistors are:
Biasing: 1k ohms (default IN PLACE when in RS-422/485 modes)
The biasing resistors are connected to the receive lines, pulling the
RDA(-) line to ground and the RDB(+) line to a positive voltage. The
bias resistor is automatically IN when you select RS-422/485 mode.
For additional information on termination and biasing download the RS-
442 and RS-485 Applications eBook from www.bb-elec.com or contact

Setting COM Port Operating Modes
The operating modes of the converter are configured by the positions
of DIP switches accessible on the USR60x enclosure. The DIP switches
on the USR602 are located on the front panel of the converter.
•
Switches 1 and 2 configure Port 1
•
Switches 3 and 4 configure Port 2
Figure 122: DIP Switches
The DIP switches on the USR604 are located on the top of the
enclosure near the power connectors (when the unit is positioned
vertically).
