Dual RS-485 Module DSI486,
Version B
The later module version, DSI486-B, has otherwise the same features as
module DSI486-A, but its jumper settings are slightly different. The
settings have been simplified to make the module easier to use. Notably,
jumpers X4 and X5 still select the termination resistors for channels A
and B, respectively, only their locations have been moved a bit (see
Figure 69 on page 146 ).

Jumpers X3 and X6 are used to select between the RS-485 and RS-232
modes for channel B, but their settings have been simplified. The
jumper positions are described in
Table 35 on page 146 .
