I want verify 2nd case of the below truth table of MAX485 IC (RS485). Please see in red color.enter image description here

Is my circuit correct ? I have connected RE,DE and A-B to GND for making it LOW.I have connect DI to GND also just to avoid floating connection. However LED still unexpectedly blinks. why?

Since both A and B are 0V, 0V-0V=0V difference between them. The difference does not exceed threshold of logic 1 or logic 0 (+0.2V or -0.2V) so the fail-safe mechanism keeps the RO high.
