  • Master to slave: 36 Volt = 1 - 24 Volt = 0
  • Slave to Master: Draws < 1,5 mA = 1 - draws11-20 mA = 0
  • Baudrate: 300 - 9600
  • Cable: Two-wire standard telephone cable (JYStY N20.8 mm)
  • Max cable length: 350 Meter (Lower baud rates up to 1000 Meter - but restricted power not below 12 V max capacitance 180 nF)
  • Power: Up to 27 Watt through the cable = 0,75 A
  • Slaves: Up to 250 in a single segment
  • Repeater: Also called a master and typically is an M-BUS to RS232 converter attached to a host
  • Plug: No standard
  • M-BUS slave example: MIKROE-4137 M-BUS SLAVE CLICK
  • M-BUS master example: MIKROE-3880 M-BUS MASTER CLICK
  • OMS-Group - Extension of M-BUS and wM-BUS
