RS-485 uses half-duplex communication, which means that one medium is shared for transmitting and receiving data. Therefore the system needs to control the RS-485 transceiver's transmit mode. Usually the UART RTS signal is used to switch the transmitter on and off. Our modules provide the following support:

Overview

The Android/Linux UART/serial port access from user is through the tty-devices. The tty-devices have different names depending on UART driver on different board.

RS-485

RS-485 uses half-duplex communication, which means that one medium is shared for transmitting and receiving data. Therefore the system needs to control the RS-485 transceiver's transmit mode. Usually the UART RTS signal is used to switch the transmitter on and off.
