6. KEYBOARD CONNECTORS
RS-485 ports
EKB-500 provides two independent RS-485 ports with 2 RJ-45 plugs each (loop-through).
Pin assignment:
Pin 1: 12 VDC
Pin 3: RS-485 +
Pin 6: RS-485 -
Pin 7: Ground
Pin assignment RJ-45 connector
connector box
Delivery comprises a connector box for RS-485 and 12 VDC power supply connection enabling power
supply connection either directly to the EKB 500 keyboard or through the connector box.
RS-232 connector
The 9-pin Sub-D connector is used for service purposes, e.g. keyboard update with new firmware.
POWER CONNECTOR
Use the 5,5 mm socket for connecting the 12 VDC power supply. The power supply may be installed
either through this socket or through the included connector box.

7. INSTALLATION
7.1. General RS-485 bus installation
EKB 500 uses a RS-485 simplex wiring; the signal is transferred via a single twisted pair line.
CAT5 network cable is recommended, UTP version (unshielded) is sufficient for normal application. A
shielded cable should be used if the installed cables are expected to be highly susceptible to interferences.
The number of devices installed in one bus is limited to 32 (expandable through signal distributors), while
max. 8 EKB 500 keyboards may be installed in one system.
Basically, the bus should be created by serial wiring.
Maximum RS-485 bus cable length is 1200 m.
Maximum cable length from box to device is 2m using connector boxes.
Star wiring is permitted only with signal distributors.
WRONG !

8
RS-485 signal distributors may be used for star wiring. The maximum system cable length can also be
expanded by using these distributors, physically providing a new RS-485 bus with 1200 m cable length
each at every distributor output.
In case the maximum number of 32 bus participants is exceeded, the number of connected devices can
be increased by using RS-485 distributors. Each distributor output physically provides one RS-485 bus
which enables the additional connection of 31 further devices (the distributor output represents one bus
participant itself).
The maximum system expandability depends on the RS-485 address range of the installed devices.
Attention: The RS-485 signal distributor is unidirectional! This means that the signal only flows from
the input towards the outputs. Therefore, e.g. the interconnection of several EKB 500 keyboards is not
possible with this signal distributor!
