You can connect up to 63 multiplexers on the same network. You can improve network
performance by limiting the range to the minimum value that includes the multiplexer
addresses and configuring the multiplexers to use a range of consecutive addresses.
NOTICE
After completing the configuration, verify that the baud rates match in AMS Device
Manager, the multiplexer, and the RS-232 to RS-485 converter. To change the baud
rate for a multiplexer network in AMS Device Manager, select its name in the
Network Configuration dialog and click Properties. Enter the correct baud rate and
click Apply.
