    8 RS-232 ↔ 485/422 CONVER TERS 2. Introduction The RS-232 ↔ 485/422 Converter Plus is an RS-232-to-RS-485 interface converter that operates in the same manner as a line driver. It allows an RS-232 device to transmit data over much longer distances than is normally possible (up to 4 miles—6.4 km—at 1200 bps). The advantage of the RS-232 ↔ ...

    10 RS-232 ↔ 485/422 CONVER TERS NOTE When the jumper W9 (CTS) is in the ON position and jumper W15 is in the A-B position, the RS-485 driver is always turned on to enable transmission of data. Therefore, half-duplex transmission cannot be performed. See Section 3.1.5 for an explanation of the RS-485 driver. Figure 1. Layout of the Printed Circuit ...

    11 CHAPTER 3: Installation 3.1.4 CTS D ELAY (W9 J UMPER ) When the transmitter of a device is first turned on, an unstable carrier signal is transmitted for several milliseconds. If data was sent during this period, it would be received as distorted information. Setting a CTS delay on the RS-232 ↔ 485/422 Converter allows the communications link ...

    12 RS-232 ↔ 485/422 CONVER TERS Driver Enabled by Data The RS-485 driver can also be enabled without requiring an RS-232 control lead to be asserted. When jumper W15 is placed in the B-C position, the driver is enabled when data is received on the RS-232 port of the RS-232 ↔ 485/422 Converter. As soon as the first bit of the first character is ...
