Important Notes:
1. RS485 communication wires should be a shielded twisted
pair cable. RS485 communication wires should be connected in a bus cascade topology instead of a star topology, to achieve a better shielding eect by reducing signal reection

3. To eliminate signal attenuation in communication cables and
ON
suppress interference, if the bus is longer than 200 meters, set the number 8 DIP switch to the ON position. This is equivalent to a parallel connection of one 120ohm resistance between the 485+ and 485- lines.

1. Number 1-6 are reserved to set the device number for RS485 communication. The
code is binary, and the numbering starts from left to right. When the switch is set to ON position, it indicates 1 (on); when the switch is set downwards, it indicates 0 (o ). For example, to set a device number 39=1+2+4+32, which corresponds to the binary code 111001, put number 1, 2, 3, and 6 to ON position, as illustrated below.
