5RS485 CONNECTION
The instrument has three terminals for connection to the RS485 port. The connection must be
carried out using a twisted pair inserted in the appropriate screw terminals (see Fig. 16). The
terminalsmarked "A" and "B" indicate the polarity of the contacts. There is also a terminal identified
by the symbol for connecting the shield (sheath) of the twisted pair to be used for network
installation in high interference environments or in the presence of strong currents. The polarity of
thecontacts must be observed when the connection ismade(see also the indications on the label).
It is recommended to use a twisted pair cable with minimum section of 0,36 mm2(22 AWG)
characteristic impedence 120W and with capacity lower than 60 pF/m.
