It is recommended that devices on the MODBUS (RS485) are connected in a daisy-chain
configuration, whereby 120R terminating resistors should be connected between A and B
lines of the bus at both ends of the chain (close to the outer devices). This resistor is built-
in in the RH&T-SENS-D-MODBRTU transducer and can be switched on using the no. 1
switch on the configuration DIP-switch (see section 3.4).
Moreover, shielded cables should be used when the device is operated in high interference
environments and the shield should be connected to the nearest PE point on the power
supply side.
