Termination Jumper
The Beacon 410 includes a 2-pin termination header (see Figure 1) that may need to be
installed when the Beacon 410 is used in a Modbus system. Every Beacon 410 is supplied
with a termination jumper (a jumper block) installed onto this header. If the Beacon 410 is
not used in a Modbus system, this jumper has no function. When the Beacon 410 is
installed in a Modbus system, this jumper must be installed in a Beacon 410 that is at the
end of a Modbus line. Any Beacon 410 in a Modbus system that is not at the end of a line
must have the termination jumper removed (see Figure 15 & Figure 16 below).
