Note:
Turn on DIP switch S1 on the bypass that is located at the end of the network. If S1 is missing, then an external 120 ohm resistor must be
placed across terminals TXRX+ and TXRX-. All other slave devices must have this DIP switch set to the OFF position (or if S1 is missing,
no external resistor must be used).
u
Network Termination
The two ends of the network line must be terminated with a 120 ohm resistor between the TXRX+ and TXRX- signals. The
Z1000 Bypass has a built in termination resistor that can be enabled or disabled using DIP switch S1. If a bypass is located at
the end of a network line, enable the termination resistor by setting DIP switch S1 to the ON position. Disable the termination
resistor on all slaves that are not located at the network line end.
Note:
Some bypass controllers do not have DIP switch S1. in such cases an external 120 ohm resistor must be placed across the
TXRX+ and TXRX- signals if the bypass controller is at the end of a network line.
