Physical layer
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 Transceiver example: TI-TSS721A
