The 80XX Series Modules are designed for RS-485 communication. Since most PCs
have RS-232 ports, not RS-485 ports, it is necessary to have a converter between
the PC and the 80XX Modules converting RS-232 to RS-485 and visa versa. The
8520 performs these conversion functions.
A single 8520 can link 256 individual 80XX series modules in a single RS-485
network. If a repeater is used, up to 2,048 modules may be linked using a single
converter. Each of the up to 2,048 modules can be accepting data from a different
type of device with a unique data baud rate and data format. A standard converter
would be unable to accommodate such a wide range of differences in format and
baud rate. However, the 8520 contains an innovative patent pending "Self Tuner"-
ASIC. This chip can adjust the data baud rate and data format automatically
throughout the entire network. Therefore, a single 8520 can link up to 2,048
different devices in the same network easily. Further, as all adjustments are
performed automatically, there is no need for DIP switch settings, and the module's
plastic case need never be opened. |
