Chapter 1 Introduction
This manual explains how to use the PMC-1220E RS485 hub. This chapter provides an overview of
the PMC-1220E and summarizes many of its key features.
1.1 Overview
The PMC-1220E is an Industrial RS485 hub with one upstream port and four downstream ports. Not
only can the PMC-1220E be used to increase the number of RS458 nodes beyond the 32 limit, it can
also be used to simplify the wiring for a RS-485 network by splitting a long segment into four
individual shorter segments, thus reducing labor and material costs while expanding the coverage area.
Each RS485 port is optically isolated to protect the connected devices from electrical surges as a result
of lightning or other electrical faults.
1.2 Features
One upstream RS485 port and four downstream RS485 ports
15kV ESD protection
3kV isolation protection on all RS485 signals
Dip-switch selectable baud rates from 1,200 to 38,400bps
< 1µs transmission delay between upstream and downstream ports
Built-in termination resistor for each port
Short circuit protection on the RS485 bus
Metal enclosure
DIN-Rail and Wall Mounting
Extended operating temperature
1.3 Typical Applications
Energy Management System, Building, Factory and Substation Automation
Simplify RS485 wiring and support segmentation
Increase the number of RS485 nodes from the standard 31 nodes to a maximum of 4x31 nodes

2.3 Mounting
The PMC-1220E should be installed in a dry environment with no dust and kept away from heat,
radiation and electrical noise source. Installation steps:
Wall Mounting

Pre-drill the mounting holes based on the mounting diagrams below
Mount the device by affixing the supplied screws to the wall through the circular part of the key
holes on the mounting flange and then sliding the device downwards into position
Figure 2-3-1 Wall Mounting
DIN-Rail Mounting
Before installation, make sure that the 35mm DIN-Rail is already in place
Align the top of the mounting clip at the back of the PMC-1220E at an angle against the top of the
DIN rail as shown in the figure below
Rotate the bottom of the PMC-1220E towards the back while applying a slight downward pressure
at the top to make sure that the device is completely and securely fixed on to the DIN rail

2.4 Power Supply Wiring
The PMC-1220E comes standard with a 95-250VAC/DC universal power supply.
For AC supply, connect the live wire to the L/+ terminal and the neutral wire to the N/- terminal.
For DC supply, connect the positive wire to the L/+ terminal and the negative wire to the N/- terminal.

Chapter 3 Application
3.1 LED Indicators
PMC-1220E’s front panel is equipped with six LED indicators –P0, P1, P2, P3, P4 and PWR. When
power is applied, the PWR indicator will lit up. When the serial ports (P0, P1, P2, P3 and P4) are
connected and have activities, the Px (P0, P1, P2, P3, P4) indicator will blink.

Chapter 4 Communication Settings
The communication settings for the PMC-1220E are controlled by Jumpers on its PCB. To configure
the PMC-1220E, the metal enclosure must first be removed to reveal the Jumpers' locations.
Jumpers J1 to J8 are located on the PMC-1220E’s PCB as illustrated in Figure 4-1 below.

4.3 Termination Resistor Settings (J4 to J8)
In certain situation, a termination resistor may be required to prevent signal reflection that would
cause serial data corruption. The PMC-1220E comes equipped with a built-in 120 Ωtermination
resistor for each RS485 port that can be enabled by changing the jumper settings on the PCB board.
The termination resistor settings are described in Table 4-4. The default setting for the termination
resistor is Disabled for all RS485 ports.
