The USB-i485 converter can be configured for four-wire (Full Duplex) RS422 and RS485 or two-wire (Half Duplex) networks. When operating in two-wire RS485 the data transfer control is automatically done by the converter. Two independent and isolated RS485 networks can be supported by one USB-i485 module thus duplicating the possible number of remote devices. - Computer interface: USB V1.1 Plug and Play. - Operational system virtual serial port driver. - Supports Windows 98/ME/XP/2000/CE, MAC & Linux 2.4.20 or superior. - Field Interfaces: RS485 Half Duplex (dual buses), RS485 Full Duplex or RS422. - Jumper selected RS485 / RS422. - Automatic flow control for RS485 Half Duplex. - 120 Ohms internal resistors termination enabled by jumpers. - Transmission rate: from 300 bps to 1Mbps. - MaximumRS485/RS422 cable length : 1200 m - Maximum number of devices in the RS485 network: - Half Duplex: 2 x 32 devices - Full Duplex: 32 devices - Data transmission and reception LED indicators - Power: from the USB port. - Consumption: <100 mA. - Isolation: 1500 Vdc from USB interface and the RS485/RS422 interface. - RS485/422 bus protection: ±60 Vdc, 15 kV ESD. - USB connection: Mini-B connector. - A 1.5 m cable with plugs mini-B and A is provided with the module. - RS485/422 connector: screw terminal type accepting 1.5 mm² (16 AWG) wires. - ABS enclosure: 70 x 60 x 18 mm - Operating environment: 0 to 70°C, 10 to 90% relative humidity, non-condensing.
