Through the USB port it is possible to make one of the following operations:
-
upload and download the application software (through the development environment UNI-PRO 3 or through a USB flash
drive)
-
debugging the software (through the development environment UNI-PRO 3 and on condition the device works in
commander modality)

Plugging-in the line termination of the RS-485 network with MODBUS
communication protocol
To reduce the reflections on the signal transmitted along the cables connecting the devices to a RS-485 network with MODBUS
communication protocol it is necessary to plug-in the line termination of the first and of the last element of the network.
To plug-in the line termination, position micro switch 1 on position ON.
The micro switch is located at the back of the devices.
