COM1 port must be set at the same baud rate in all instruments in the multidrop
chain.
RS-485 CONNECTION
As delivered from the factory, COM2 is configured for RS-232 communications. This
port can be reconfigured for operation as a non-isolated, half-duplex RS-485 port. Using
COM2 for RS-485 communication disables the USB port. To reconfigure this port for
RS-485 communication, please contact the factory.
3.3.2. PNENUMATIC CONNECTIONS
This section provides not only pneumatic connection information, but also important
