64 Chapter 5: Matrox 4Sight-M hardware reference

On Matrox 4Sight-M, you can activate internal resistor termination to eliminate
distortion caused by these reflections. To connect internal resistor termination on
your unit, adjust the internal dip switch accordingly.

❖ Note that on a Matrox 4Sight-M unit in a multidrop network, internal resistor

termination is available exclusively for the receivers.

Two-wire multidrop
network

The following illustrates a typical RS-485 two-wire multidrop network that
Matrox 4Sight-M cannot support.

Note that because the driver and receiver for the Matrox 4Sight-M serial port are
always enabled, the unit cannot be connected to a typical RS-485 two-wire
multidrop network shown below.
