Post by thread:508 and RS485

I am going to need to use a 12C508 for a firework launching device. It will be on a long serial bus, I was figuring that RS485 would be the best way to go for outdoor conditions. Is there some information I can get about RS485, like are there easy to use dedicated chips?
