Connecting Eaglehawk Nx Via Its Rs485-2 Interface To A Modbus - Honeywell CENTRA LINE EAGLEHAWK NX Installation & Commissioning Instructions

EAGLEHAWK NX CONTROLLER – INSTALLATION & COMMISSIONING INSTRUCTIONS

Connecting EAGLEHAWK NX via its RS485-2 Interface to a Modbus

With regards to Fig. 50, please note the following:
NOTE: Always power each EAGLEHAWK NX controller and the connected Modbus slaves via separate transformers.
NOTE: For "L," see section "RS485 Standard" on pg. 10.
NOTE: If any of the devices are electrically isolated, it is recommended that those devices be connected to signal ground. See
section "RS485 Standard" on pg. 10.
NOTE: Between devices equipped with non-isolated RS485 bus interfaces, potential differences of max. ±7 V are allowed.
Further, this bus should not extend beyond a single building.

The termination resistor must be inserted directly into the terminals of the last Modbus slave.
NOTE: In this example, a maximum of one of the Modbus RTU slaves can be an EAGLEHAWK NX Modbus RTU slave –
which must then be positioned at the end of the Modbus (as "Modbus Module #N"); the insertion of the aforementioned
termination resistor is then unnecessary.
