    === RS-485 Connection: ===
 +
<p>The dongle features RS-485 terminals which are critical for establishing communication with the TeltoCharge system. These terminals are usually labeled as Ground (GND), A+ (positive differential signal), and B- (negative differential signal).
 +
<p>To connect the dongle to the TeltoCharge system, you'll need to use an appropriate RS-485 cable:
 +
<p>Connect the 'A+' terminal of your cable to the 'A+' port on the TeltoCharge device.
 +
<p>Connect the 'B-' terminal of your cable to the 'B-' port on the TeltoCharge device.
 +
<p>In case of communication errors, swapping the 'A+' and 'B-' connections might resolve the issue./p>
