About the MJ20-RS Add-on Module
The MJ20-RS Add-on Module enables Jazz OPLC™
networking and serial communications, including
program download. The module comprises:
▪A single communication channel that serves one
RS232 port and one RS485 port. The module cannot
communicate via RS232 and RS485 simultaneously.
▪Switches that enable you to set the device as an
RS485 network termination point
Note that the ports are isolated from the Jazz OPLC.

▪Do not cross positive (A) and negative (B) signals. Positive terminals must be wired to positive, and negative terminals to negative.
▪Minimize the stub (drop) length leading from each device to the bus. The stub should not exceed 5 centimeters. Ideally, the main cable should
be run in and out of the networked device.
▪Use shielded twisted pair (STP) cables to network device, in compliance with EIA RS485.
