The MDrive Motion Control can be operated in a 2 wire RS-485 communication bus. Before connecting the 2 wire RS-485, download your program and setup instructions using the standard 4 wire RS-485 Communications Cable. If a program is not being used, download and save any setup parameters. To ensure the MDrive responds only to commands specifically meant for it, set the MDrive in Party Mode (party mode details). The Echo Mode command (EM) must be set to the value of 2 (EM=2). This will set the MDrive into "half duplex" mode. Connect the MDrive in the 2 wire RS-485 configuration. The illustration below shows how to connect the MDrive 4 wire RS-485 to operate as a 2 wire system. |

Note: The RS-232 to
RS-485 cable (IMS Part #MDCC-200-000) cannot be used in a 2 wire
RS-485 system. If you wish to monitor the MDrive serial
communication from a PC, an RS-232 to RS-485 2 wire converter must
be used. This will allow you to monitor the MDrive.
