RS-232↔485/422 CONVERTERS

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↔485/422 Converter

Plus over other line drivers is that it can also operate in multipoint applications.

Depending on the operating environment, as many as 64 devices can be linked

together using twisted-pair cable.

The opto-isolating models (IC109A, IC109AE, IC109C) protect one segment of

your extended network from problems that arise on the other. Inside the

RS-232↔485/422 Opto-Isolator/Converter, optical isolation circuitry converts

electrical signals to light and back again, to keep signal noise and ground loops

from crossing between segments of your RS-485 installation. That means the

electrical noise from your factory floor won’t affect your office communications,

and the difference in ground potential between buildings won’t damage your

sensitive equipment.

Additional features include a manual loopback test to check the system wiring for

both the RS-232 and RS-485 interfaces, and transient protection on the RS-485

interface to help prevent damage due to voltage transients on the data line.

Although designed specifically to connect to other RS-232↔485/422 Converters,

the RS-485 port may be connected to any device with an RS-422 or RS-485

interface, thus acting as an interface converter. For example, this would be useful

in an industrial application where RS-485 or RS-422 devices would be connected to

an RS-232↔485/422 Converter.

The RS-232↔485/422 Converter is available in standalone and rackmount

versions. The rackmount cards (part numbers IC108C and IC109C) are designed

to be installed in the multi-function rack (part number RM005).

If you ordered the IC109A-R2, you should have received a cable and an adapter

with your RS-232↔485/422 Converter Plus. The cable is designed to plug into an

IBM PC AT (or clone) DB9 com port. The adapter is designed to be used with the

supplied cable to connect to an IBM PC computer’s DB25 com port.

CHAPTER 3: Installation

3. Installation

This section describes the jumper and switch functions for configuring the

RS-232↔485/422 Converter. See Figure 1 on the next page for the component

locations.

To install your RS-232↔485/422 Converter:

1. Set each of the ten jumpers/switches for your application.

2. Connect the RS-232↔485/422 Converter devices together as shown in

Figures 5 through 8 (pages 23–25).

3. Apply power. (PS154 or PS154E, depending on which RS-232↔485/422

Converter you have. See Chapter 1 for more information.)

3.1 Jumper and Switch Configuration

NOTE

As you read this section, refer to Tables 1 and 2. Table 1 (page 15) lists

DCE jumper settings, and Table 2 (page 20) lists DTE jumper settings.

3.1.1 DTE/DCE C

ONFIGURATION

A DIP shunt is used to select DTE or DCE configuration. For the RS-232↔485/422

Converter to appear as a DTE device, put the DIP shunt jumper in socket XW1B.

For the RS-232↔485/422 Converter to appear as a DCE device, put the DIP shunt

jumper in socket XW1A.

Jumper W7 ties signal ground to frame ground. The position is left open at the

factory. If signal ground is to be connected to frame ground, solder a 100-ohm,

1/2-watt resistor in location W7. A wire jumper may also be used. Care must be

taken to ensure that ground circulating currents are limited to acceptable levels.

PERATION

Jumper W8 selects half-duplex or full-duplex operation. Set W8 to the HALF

position (B-C position) for half-duplex operation. Set W8 to the FULL position

(A-B position) for full-duplex operation.
