4.7.6 RS-485 Multidrop Serial Connections
In the multidrop configuration, the host device is configured as the master and one or
more PLCs are configured as slaves. The maximum distance between the master and any
slave may not exceed 4000 feet (1200 meters). This figure assumes good quality cables
and a moderately noisy environment. A maximum of 8 slaves can be connected using
RS485 in a daisy chain or multidrop configuration. The RS485 line must include
handshaking and use wire type as specified earlier.
