Termination settings
When connecting multiple devices, you must make
termination settings on both end devices.
z Set the RS-485 termination switch of the end device to
ON.
z Be sure to set all non-termination devices (i.e., devices
other than the first and last devices) to OFF.
z If you do not make the correct termination settings, data
will be reflected at both ends, affecting other data and
making the data transmitted to each device incorrect.
