Later, after the receiver has emptied its buffers, it sends an Xon character to tell the sender to resume transmission</td>

| − | ===Maximum data rate vs. transmission line length===
| |
| − | ---- | |
| − | RS-485 standart can be used for network lengths up to 1200 meters, but the maximum usable data rate decreases as the transmission length increases. A device operating at the maximum data transfer rate (10Mbps) is limited to a transmission length of about 12 meters, while the 100kbps data rate can achieve a distance up to 1200 meters. A rough relation between maximum transmission length and data rate can be calculated using this approximation:
| |
| − | | |
| − | [[Image:Services rs485 formula.PNG]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | Where Lmax is the maximum transmission length in meters and DR is maximum data rate in bits per second.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Twisted pair is the prefered cable type for RS-485 networks. Twisted pair cables pick up noise and other electromagnetically induced voltages as common mode signals, which are rejected by the differential receivers.

| − | ===2-Wire and 4-Wire Networks===
| |
| − | ---- | |
| − | Below is an example of a 4-wire network electrical connection. There are 3 devices shown in the example. One of the devices is the “master” and other two are “slaves”. Termination resistors are placed at each cable end. Four-wire networks consists of one „master“ with its transmitter connected to each of the “slaves‘” receivers on one twisted pair. The “slave” transmitters are all connected to the “master” receiver on a second twisted pair.
| |
| − | | |
| − | [[Image:Services rs485 4wire.PNG]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | Example 2-wire network electrical connection: to enable a 2-wire RS-485 configuration on a Teltonika router, you need to connect D_P to R_P and D_N to R_N on the device’s RS-485 socket. Termination resistors are placed at each
| |
| − | cable end.
| |
| − | | |
| − | [[Image:Services rs485 2wire.PNG]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Termination===
| |
| − | ---- | |
| − | '''When to use (place jumper)'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | Termination resistor, equal in resistance to cable characteristic impedance, must be connected at each end of the cable to reduce reflection and ringing of the signals when the cable lengths get relatively long. Rise time of the RUT955 RS-485 driver is about 5 ns, so the maximum unterminated cable length is about 12 cm. As transmission line cables will always be longer than 12 cm, termination is mandatory all the time if RUT955 is located at the end of the cable.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''When not to use (remove jumper)'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | If your RS-485 consists of more than two devices and the RUT955 router is located not on the end of the line but, for example, in the middle, RUT955 termination resistor needs to be disabled. In this case, place termination at other devices which are situated at the ends of the line.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''How to enable termination'''
| |
| − | | |
| − | 120 Ω termination resistor is included on the RUT955 PCB and can be enabled by shorting contacts (shown in the picture below), placing 2.54mm pitch jumper:
| |
| − | | |
| − | [[Image:Services rs485 jumper.PNG]]
| |
| − | | |
| − | ===Number of devices in an RS-485 Network===
| |
| − | ---- | |
| − | One RUT955 RS-485 driver is capable of driving a maximum of 32 receivers, provided that the receiver input impedance is 12 kΩ. If receiver impedances are higher, the maximum number of receivers in the network increases. Any combination of receiver types can be connected together, provided their parallel impedance does not exceed RLoad > 375 Ω.

| |
| − | ----
| |
| − | With Modem Serial type, the router imitates a dial-up modem. Connections to TCP/IP networks can be established using AT commands. The connection can be initiated by the device connected via serial interface with an ATD command: ATD <host>:<port>. If Direct connect settings are specified, the connection to the server is always active. Data mode can be entered by issuing the ATD command. Incoming connections are indicated by sending a RING to the serial interface.

Cables
There are two types of RS232 serial devices: DTE and DCE. DTE typically refers to the serial port on a PC or terminal, while DCE refers to communication devices. Connectors mounted on DTE are likely to be male, and those mounted on DCE are likely to be female.
This device is DCE and has a female connector.
To connect a standard DTE device, use a straight-through Female/Male RS232 cable:
See straight cable pinout below:
To connect another DCE device to RUT955, a Null-modem (crossed) Male/Male cable should be used:
See straight crossed cable pinout below:
Maximum cable length is 15 meters or the cable length equal to a capacitance of 2500 pF (for a 19200 baud rate). Using lower capacitance cables can increase the distance. Reducing communication speed can also increase maximum cable length.
RS232 Configuration
The RS232 Configuration section is used to set up the main operating parameters and the serial type of the RS232 connector.
| Field |
Value |
Description |
| Enabled |
off | on; default: off |
Turns the RS232 service on or off. |
| Baud rate |
300 | 600 | 1200 | 2400 | 4800 | 9600 | 19200 | 38400 | 57600 | 115200; default: 115200 |
Data rate for serial data transmission (in bits per second (bps)). |
| Data bits |
5 | 6 | 7 | 8; default: 8 |
Number of data bits for each character. |
| Parity |
None | Odd | Even; default: None |
In serial transmission, parity is a method of detecting errors. An extra data bit is sent with each data character, arranged so that the number of 1 bits in each character, including the parity bit, is always odd or always even. If a byte is received with the wrong number of 1s, then it must have been corrupted. However, an even number of errors can pass the parity check.
- None (N) - no parity method is used.
- Odd (O) - the parity bit is set so that the number of "logical ones (1s)" has to be odd.
- Even (E) - the parity bit is set so that the number of "logical ones (1s)" has to be even.
|
| Stop bits |
1 | 2; default: 1 |
Stop bits sent at the end of every character allow the receiving signal hardware to detect the end of a character and to resynchronise with the character stream. Electronic devices usually use one stop bit. Two stop bits are required if slow electromechanical devices are used. |
| Flow control |
None | RTS/CTS | Xon/Xoff; default: None |
In many circumstances a transmitter might be able to send data faster than the receiver is able to process it. To cope with this, serial lines often incorporate a "handshaking" method, usually distinguished between hardware and software handshaking.
- RTS/CTS - hardware handshaking. RTS and CTS are turned OFF and ON from alternate ends to control data flow, for instance when a buffer is almost full.
- Xon/Xoff - software handshaking. The Xon and Xoff characters are sent by the receiver to the sender to control when the sender will send data, i.e., these characters go in the opposite direction to the data being sent. The circuit starts in the "sending allowed" state. When the receiver's buffers approach capacity, the receiver sends the Xoff character to tell the sender to stop sending data. Later, after the receiver has emptied its buffers, it sends an Xon character to tell the sender to resume transmission.
