RS-485 PORTS Table 4–2 shows the default values for each of the RS-485 ports.
NOTE: On a 4-wire mixed mode (POWERLOGIC and Modbus) daisychain,
device address 1 cannot be a POWERLOGIC or SY/MAX device and device
address 16 cannot be a Modbus device.
Each RS-485 port is a male DB-9 connector with the pin-out arrangement
shown in Figure 4–5.
Figure 4–5: Male DB-9 connector (master port)
Two DB9-to-terminal block adapters (female) [Square D part no. DB9F2TB]
are included with the Power Server. To connect the daisy chain of devices to
the RS-485 port, attach an adapter to a Belden 8723 or equivalent cable and
plug the adapter into the COM 3 or COM 4 port on the Power Server. Wire
the cable and adapter as shown in Figure 4–6.
NOTE: Because of pin out configurations, it is necessary to make these
connections as described. Square D cable CAB-107 is not compatible with
this application.
