Module 485 - this is one of the most important elements in industrial automation, providing communication between various electronic devices and ensuring equipment operability. During the past few years, much progress has been in it to improve its reliability and efficiency more than ever before.
These new generations of 485 modules have a host of improved features that give them significant function upgrade. The new features allow us to have more options when it comes of connectivity, data transfer speeds as well power management. Those new modules can reach higher baud rates, transmit data more quickly, improve error corrections; and of course allow us to do better power management. Furthermore, the life of these modules are also long ensuring higher performance and reliability for industrial usage.
Industrial automation field, its 485 modules for corresponding industries are generally very high evaluation. Some of the most popular choices include;
Moxa NPort 5150A: Best-in-class performance, high speed and stability enable it to provide industrial automation users with an efficient one-to-one connection between serial devices and a network. Featuring baud rates that can go up to 921.6 kbps, and TCP/UDP/HTTP modes of operation, the Moxa NPort 5150A is a perfect solution for harsh industrial conditions.
Figure 1: Advantech ADAM-4572-A cost-effective 2-port serial device server, can be used for stable and high-speed communication network. With both of those capabilities the HeavyMio can be used as a converter and repeater, so it's good for enterprise type networking where features like this are common. Also, it is compatible with a variety of devices and machines since the Advantech ADAM-4572 supports Modbus RTU/TCP/Serial to Ethernet protocols.
Siemens S7-1200 CPU 1214C DC/DC/DC - This PLC (programmable logic controller) from Siemens embraces versatility on the communication aspect, offering port capabilities for both 485 and ethernet protocols. Boasting a user-friendly design that makes installation and configuration easy, the Siemens S7-1200 CPU 1214C DC/DC/DC includes Integrated web server function for remote device access.
While 485 communications are very reliable, there are some common issues that you may experience with your modules which can affect their performance. To address these properly, follow these troubleshooting tips:
Verify Physical Connection: The first step is to check the cables/connectors and power source. A weak power supply or a loose connection can produce communication errors and remove your equipment from service.
Check the 485 module is configured correctly: ensure that pane configuration files have properly been set. If these are not correct it will result in communication errors because the port is expecting one set of baud rate,parity and stop bit settings while another device connected to this PC is sending data at a different pod setting thus resulting in unreadable data.
Inspect 485 Module Network Settings: Check the network settings of the 485 module to ensure perfectly set. Make sure that the IP address, subnet mask and gateway etc settings matches with network which you are using otherwise it can create problem while connecting.
Many popular 485 module brands, each with different functionalities and features that are provided on the market. The chart below illustrates a few leading brands for comparison:

A 485 module is used in a wide variety of applications, specifically within smart city infrastructures where communication must be both reliable and robust. Take a look at some of the critical uses of 485 modules in smart city infrastructure:
Traffic Management: 485 modules are very useful in upgrading traffic management systems of smart cities. It allows traffic control centres to manage and even respond in real-time based on the communication between traffic lights mediation by these modules, helping keep congestion down.
Streetlights can be turned on and off where necessary based on time of the day, Volume/runs at that particular area. - smart lighting: by leveraging 485 modules, street lights are been controlled efficiently through outsmarting the light activation (on/off) due to specific sensors conditions like Time,key areas,Bioluminescence etc,. Automating the process saves energy and as a side benefit, increases resident security.
Well, In the case smart city one of application is environmental monitoring.485 modules inbuilt enviromental moitoring systems. These modules allow for the transmission of vital environmental data to central control systems by which air quality, water purity and noise pollution are monitored.
485 modules as key components for leading industrial automation and smart city infrastructures. These modules are also perfectly suitable for a variety of applications in these areas due to their reliability, energy economy and numerous additional functionalities. Users who troubleshoot the most widespread problems and then select a 485 module brand that is best suited to do its job can rest assured their systems and equipment will continue running as expected.
