In the RS-422 mode, TX lines are outputs and RX lines are inputs. Connect the Modbus
gateway TXB(+) line to the RXB(+) line of the Modbus network, and the Modbus
gateway TXA(-) to the RXA(-) of the Modbus network.

Ground is signal ground and provides a common mode reference for the RS-422 Receiver
and Transmitters.
