RS422 is a physical layer standard (electrical). With RS422 (unlike RS232) the signal travels in 2 lines (tx+ and tx-). This is called differential transmission.

Probably, you microcontroller doesn't have inbuilt RS422 buffers, so to make thing work - you'll need a bidirectional single ended to RS422 tranciever.
