How do I control transmit and receive direction?
The part has separate driver enable (DE) and receiver enable (RE) pins. Keep RE low to keep the receiver active, and drive DE from a microcontroller pin so the driver is enabled only while transmitting.
Do I need termination resistors on the bus?
For longer cables and higher data rates, a termination resistor, commonly 120 ohms, is usually placed at each end of the bus to reduce signal reflections.
