●USB Bus power. No need to have an external power supply.
●Virtual COM port driver supporting Windows® 10 is attached.
●Card-case sized, metal enclosure, noise resitance.
●Able to mount on 35mm DIN rail.
●Lowe power consumption.
●Support 300bps up to 3Mbps.
●Support RS-485 driver control automatically and DTR/RTS line control.
●Monitor RS-485 line and support flow control on CTS line.
●Able to control 128sets maximum as RS-485 multi-drop type.
●Able to extend RS-422/485 up to 1.2Km.

SI-35USB/SI-35USB-2 are USB converter, which converts USB of PC into RS-422/RS-485. 3000V high-voltage resistant isolation ensures the connection between USB and RS-422/RS-485. Supporting wide range of temperature, metal enclosure, and noise resistant make it possible to use in the factories or inspection lab.

■Description

RS-422/485 terminal

5 terminals, easy to wire in the site

Terminal Name RS-422(Full duplex)*1 RS-485(Half duplex)*1
I/O*2 Explanation I/O*2 Explanation
1 TR+ O Transmission data+ I/O Send/Receive data+
2 TR- O Send data- I/O Send/Receive data-
3 GND - Signal ground*4 - Signal ground*4
4 R+ I Receive data+ - No*3
5 R- I Receive data- - No*3
*1: Able to change by Dip switch. (SW-B)
*2: “O”: Output signal from converter. “I”: Input signal toward converter. “I/O”: Both ways.
*3: Do not connect anything when half duplex.
*4: To prevent damage from high voltage on the device, it is recommended to connect the GND between devices.
