If the RS-485 network exceeds 100 metres in length or baud rate over 9600 are used, close the two jumpers,
called "RS-485 termination", to activate two 120 ohm terminating resistors between the ‘+’ and ‘–’ terminals of
the line, on the terminal strip of the furthest instrument. Should there be different instruments or converters,
refer to the specific manuals to determine whether it is necessary to connect the above-mentioned resistors.
