Hi,
A RS485 cable is supposed to be 2 wires (A&B)+ GND(recomended), if so, what is the second cable mentioned in your post? If all the unit's connectors, therefore connections to the bus are identical, why shouldn't all the units see two GNDs? Probably I couldn't understand the case, but, my question would be, for a system of 200 units, do you apply this switching system (relay) to all units just for the sake of comfortibility of automatic termination? Apart from this, the real headache is biasing in a ever extending RS485 network. Do you have any automatic biasing system solution as bus gets longer in time? Thanks. Rustu |

| Thanks Erik | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| stick to the National and B&B stuff | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| the worse 485 wiring | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| automatic termination is the solution | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| what\'s that? | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| its simple | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| Cool! | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| hmmm | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| actually very simple | 01/01/70 00:00 | |

| chain | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| I've got it. | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| It works, you work out the details | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| maybe not biasing A&B... | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| then use a high enough voltage | 01/01/70 00:00 | |

| if you supply via cable... | 01/01/70 00:00 | |

| thanks for the tip! | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| great.Oliver, just this | 01/01/70 00:00 | |
| it would, but think this through | 01/01/70 00:00 |
