DH-485 Interface
In this configuration, you interface the serial port on the personal computer
with port DH485 on the BASIC module through a 1747-PIC
Interface/Converter. The 1747-PIC Interface/Converter converts the
RS-232 signals from the personal computer RS-232 serial port to RS-485
format. Port DH485 is configured as the program port.
