Connecting to the Host’s RS-422A/485 Port Section 5-2
5-2-3 Direct Connection between RS-485 Ports at Both Units
The connection method in which the RS-485 ports of an NT631/NT631C and
a host are connected is described here.
Reference: When RS-485 is used at the PT side, only the NT Link (1:N) method (standard
or high-speed) can be used.
