NOTE:
C588XB only supports RS422/RS485. C584XB only supports 
RS232/RS422/RS485. Each connector port has an isolated 
ground. RS485 mode may let pin9 & pin11 short together as 
DATA+ and pin10 & pin12 short together as DATA- connects with 
another device. In RS422 mode, pins 2/3/4/5/6/8/20 may be 
floating can be pulled down to GND with 5k ohm resistor. In RS232 
mode, pins 9/10/11/12 may be floating. Don't connect any RS232 
signal to these pins. 120 ohm terminator resistors are built in each 
input signal pair. In RS485 mode users may need to have this 
terminator resistor in both ends of the device. In other location 
users may need to remove such terminator. Users can set the 
jumper On/Off to use/remove this terminator resistor.
