Humidity and Temperature Probe

HMP155 has been connected to a power supply, the serial line and the
analog outputs are operational depending on product model.

RS-485 Interface

HMP155 supports a two-wire RS-485 communication. The RS-485
interface is non-isolated and offers a maximum communications rate of
19200 bits/s. There is no internal termination for the RS-485 on the
HMP155. If any termination is needed, the bus should be terminated at
both ends. The recommended termination is R termination with 120 Ohm
resistors.

Typically the termination resistors are only needed when the fastest
communications rate (19200 bit/s) is used for longer distances. If the
resistors are used, the possible increase in current consumption should be
taken into account.
