MMINTBCONV - Intelligent RS232/RS485 Boxed Converter
The intelligent boxed converter has been designed to convert RS232 signals from a PC or PLC to RS485. The advantage of using this module is that all network timing on the 2 wire network is performed by the module. Only three wires, the RX line, TX line and ground are required.
The intelligent converter also provides isolation between the RS232 and RS485 cables. This prevents ground loops between the PC or PLC and network.
