Figure 7 Exceeding maximum specifications
The maximum specification may be exceeded if measures are taken to
drive or boost the EIA-485 communication line. Two wire EIA485
repeaters are available through the Liebert Corporation. SiteScan’s
“REPOPT” will work sufficiently for this application. Consult the
SiteScan price book for pricing schedule and alternative solutions.
