1. Specifications

MODULAR CURRENT LOOP ADAPTER

The Modular Current Loop Adapter connects current-loop equipment such as

industrial controllers and Data General computers to RS-232 equipment such as

modems, multiplexors, computers and terminals. The unit is a “passive” device:

this means it does not provide current for the current loop. The “passive” adapter

must connect to an “active” current-loop device. The “active” device provides the

20-mA current for the loop. (There can be only one active device in the current

loop.) The RS-232 interface of the attached equipment must provide a +12 voltage

on either pin 6 or pin 20 to power the adapter.

ONFIGURATION

The adapter connects easily to an RS-232 device such as a DTE (terminal,

computer) or DCE (modem, line driver, multiplexor).

The attached RS-232 device supplies power to the adapter via a positive (+12)

voltage on the adapter’s pin 20 (if the unit is configured as DCE) or pin 6 (if the

unit is configured as DTE). Pinnings for both configurations are shown below.

DTE DCE

Pin 2 = TD (output) Pin 2 = TD (input)

Pin 3 = RD (input) Pin 3 = RD (output)

Pin 6 = DSR (input) Pin 20 = DTR (input)

Pin 7 = Signal Ground Pin 7 = Signal Ground

To configure the adapter, simply move the external switch to the DTE or DCE

position. If you are going to plug the adapter into a DTE, move the adapter switch

to the DCE position. If you are going to plug the adapter into a DCE, move the

adapter switch to the DTE position.

EVICE

To connect the adapter to the RS-232 device, simply plug the unit’s DB25

connector into your RS-232 equipment’s DB25 connector. (The unit is available in

both male and female versions to accommodate your equipment.)

3. Configuration and Installation

MODULAR CURRENT LOOP ADAPTER

3.2 Current-Loop Interface

Review the following pinning guidelines before you connect the twisted-pair cable

from your current-loop device to the adapter’s RJ-11 port or four-position screw

terminal. Figure 3-1 shows the pin positions for both connectors.

Figure 3-1. Pin Positions for RJ-11 and Terminal Screw Block.

Connections on the current-loop side of the adapter may be full- or half-duplex. In

full-duplex transmission, both the adapter and the current-loop device may send

and receive data simultaneously. In half-duplex transmission, only one device at a

time may send or receive data. Section 3.2.1 describes full-duplex connections and

Section 3.2.2 discusses half-duplex connections.

4 = RX-, connect to the TX- of your device.

Typical full-duplex applications for the adapter are shown in Figures 3-2 and 3-3. In

Figure 3-2, the unit is connected to a DTE device. In Figure 3-3, the unit is

connected to a DCE device.

NOTE

When connected to a DTE device, the adapter does not output pins 5

(CTS), 6 (DSR), or 8 (CD). If your computer (DTE) needs these pins

before it can send data, you must use a short cable with the proper pin

configuration between the computer and the unit. This entails looping

pin 4 (RTS) or any other signal at 12 volts to pins 5, 6, and 8 on the side

connected to the computer.

When connected to a DCE device, the adapter does not output pins 4

(RTS) or 20 (DTR), which your modem may need before it can send data.

If your modem needs these pins, you must use a short cable with the

proper pin configuration between the modem and the unit. This involves

looping pin 8 (CD) or any other signal on the interface that is at +12 V to

pins 4 and 20 on the side connected to the modem.

*Half-duplex operation is not recommended for RJ-11 connections due to the
