RV-M7 Technical Manual
Phoenix Contact/Tyco makes a convenient DB-9 to terminal-block connector, part number 2761839.
4.7 RS422/EIA-422 Serial I/O Connector
RS-422 communications uses 4-wire differential signals. The RS422 9-pin serial I/O connector is a female
9-p D-subminiature connector having the following pins configuration.

Configuring for RS-422
To configure the M7 modem for RS-422 operation, use the ATIO 4 command. You must order the RS-
422 option for this to work. The M7’s hardware is identical to the RS-485 version, with the exception of
two internal loop-back resistors.
Raveon’s RS-422 I/O circuit uses 3.3V logic to drive the lines, and the RS422 pins are ESD protected to
±15kV and 7kV human body model.
RS-422 installations typically have a termination resistor across the In and the Out lines. A value of 150
ohms should work in most applications.
Bias and Termination Resistors
M7 transceivers with the RS-422 option have receivers with built-in bias resistors, offering the
network a true “1/8 unit load”. In most allocations, these internal bias resistors are sufficient, and
an external bias resistor is not required.
