I'm trying to find out the best order an RS485
interface as an optional interface for my CX2033
Beckhoff
industrial PC. in the ordering page I faced the following four details of RS485
with some strange expressions:
drop/end point
with/without echo
termination on/off
RS485 interface, D-sub socket, 9-pin, configuration as an end point, without echo, termination on
RS485 interface, D-sub socket, 9-pin, configuration as an end point, with echo, termination on
RS485 interface, D-sub socket, 9-pin, configuration as drop point, without echo, termination off
RS485 interface, D-sub socket, 9-pin, configuration as drop point, with echo, termination off
I looked up on the inte.net for these phrases I almost find nothing about them. now I have some questions:
RS485
interface? configuration as
, configure as hardware or software? and are there changeable to each other after this configuration or not?more information is available on this link :
Product information->Options->Optional interfaces
all datasheets of this PC are also available on this page.
any help would be appreciated.
The echo
is can be a feature or a bug. As explained here , Some CPU use this as a form of "timing control"
but it can create standing waves on the line which may create an undesirable behavior.
Termination
and drop-point
are essentially the opposite one from another. Either there is aa built-in termination or there is no termination and an option for you to add it. It is very much depends on your.network topology. You can read about it here and here .
