Mabuhay!
I am new to this forum...
Anyway, I have a project on RS485 network for 6 devices and one master which is the host computer.
I have successfully develop a simple protocol just to test if my RS485 network can send/receive data from master to slave device or vice versa..
My question is:
Would it be possible to have a bus power on my RS485 network since I have an 3 extra wire on my 6-wire bus...
I guess it would be cheap if I am going to implement it this way.. wherein all the slave device will get its power from the host computer thru the network bus...
Anybody on this forum who can provide help.. a schematics, tips, suggestion and/or any information will do.
Thank u
