Problems in practical connections

In some circumstances user adopts a star co-

nfiguration in practical connection. The termina-

tion resistors must be connected to the two equi-

pment 1# and 5# in Picture 9-6.4. As the star con-

figuration is not in conformity with the require-

ments of RS48 5 standards, problems such as sig-

nal reflections, lower anti-interference perform-

ance arise when the cables are lon g in the conne-

ction. The reliability of control signals is decrea-

sed with the phenomena that the dome does not

respond to or just responds at intervals to the co-

ntroller, or does continuous operation without

stop.

A

The address and baud rate setting of dome
are not in conformity with those of controller.

B

The "+" and "-"connection of Rs485 Bus is
incorrect.

C

The dome is very far away from controller.

D

There are too many domes connected in the
System.

A

Change the address and baud rate of controller or dome

B

Replace Rs485 Bus wires

C

Make sure the connections are fully seated

In such circumstances the factory recommends

the usage of RS485 distributor. The distributor can

change the star configuration connection to the mode

of connection stipulated in the RS485 standards.

The new connection achieves reliable data transmi-

ssion. (Refer to Picture 9 -6.5).
