Ⅰ. Mounting instruction

Make sure to power off the PLC before mounting the 2PT2DA module and remove the top
cover of PLC, screwed to the PLC.
Caution: when output current, make sure that the load resistance should be less than 500Ω,
otherwise the output will be lower.
Warring: make sure to power off the PLC before mounting or removing the BD module.

Ⅱ. The features of LX3V-RS485-BD

LX3V-RS485-BD is used for communication via RS485, it can be installed on PLC, it has the
following purposes.
1. Data transmission by no-protocol
Data transmit to designation register’s address by RS command.
2. Data transmission by proprietary protocol
Data transimission is in based on 1: N via RS485.

2) Setting serial communications parameters: bit mode
Example:
H81 means 9600, 1, 8, none, 16 bit
H8081 ,means 9600, 1, 8, none 8 bit
3) RS protocol setting(H20);
4) Timeout setting;
5) Start and end setting;
6) RS2 command
In the program, there is a need to set up the serial communications, such as setting data
starting mode, baud rate, digits, and inspection, etc.
