TUC2R Communications Troubleshooting with a Digital Voltmeter
The voltage measurements in Figure 17 are approximate voltages. Newer TUC2R controllers use a different RS485 driver chip. These voltage
measurements are taken when the power to the TUC2R controller is “ON” and the RS485 TUC communications loop is disconnected. These two
voltages will not fl uctuate. The voltage measurement from “T” to “SHIELD” should be around 3.25 VDC. The voltage measurement from “R”
to “SHIELD” should be around 3.25 VDC. Typical bad voltage measurement values would be anything above 3.8 VDC and anything below 1.5
VDC.

bad voltage measurement values would be anything above 3.8 VDC and anything below 1.5 VDC.
