Four wire RS-485 connections are shown below. The cable diagram
provides a wiring example of a daisy chain connection in a typical
installation A multi-drop cable (Figure 6.42) may also be used.
Multiple axes systems may be controlled by a computer with an RS-
232 serial port. An RS-232 serial communication port may be
converted to four wire RS-485 communication by attaching an RS-
232 to four wire RS-485 converter. The figure below depicts the use
of such a device. A daisy chain wiring configuration may also be used
as shown in Figure 6.41.
Note: RS-485 pin-outs vary between manufacturers. Check the hard-
ware reference manual to ensure correct signal connections between the
host computer and the drive.
