RS-485 Mode
To configure Port A for RS-485 mode, 7 jumpers must be
checked. The following settings configure PORT 1 as RS-485.
1.
The four jumpers of JP7 must be set to the "422" (lower)
position.
position.
2.
The top two jumpers of JP8 should be set to the 485 (left)
position. The third jumper of JP8 should be set to the 422/485
(right) position. The bottom jumper of JP8 switches the 120
position. The third jumper of JP8 should be set to the 422/485
(right) position. The bottom jumper of JP8 switches the 120

RS-485 Operation
RS-485 mode requires that the driver be enabled and
disabled as needed, allowing two or four-wire communications. To
set up the 3PXCC4A Serial Card up for two wire mode you can
simply jumper TD(A) to RD(A) (for your Data “-“) and TD(B) to
RD(B) (for your Data “+”). Use the Signal Ground for your return
path as the thrid wire in this configuration. For four wire mode you
simply use all four data lines and your signal ground for a return
path. The 3PXCC4A card uses the RTS control line to put the driver
in high-impedance or tri-state mode. With RTS control, software
must set the RTS bit to a logic 1 to enable the driver and logic 0 to
disable the driver.

The receiver can also be enabled and disabled, a useful
feature in two-wire communications to prevent the transmitted data
from "echoing back" on its own receiver. The RX 485 jumper for
each port determines the reciever mode. If the jumpers are placed in
the 485 position, the “echo” is turned off. This is achieved by
disabling the reciever when the driver is enabled. Placing these
jumpers in the 422 position will hold the reciever enabled at all
times. More information on RS-485 communications can be found in
B&B Electronics’ free RS-422/RS-485 Application Note.
