Our IC485+ interface converter includes our Auto baud feature and allows a standard RS-232 port to communicate with an individual RS-422 device or with multiple devices within an RS-485 network. The IC485+ supports RS-422 full duplex mode as well as RS-485 full or half duplex master and slave modes. This gives the user flexibility in configuring the device to meet their specific application needs. Onboard LEDs are included to indicate that the device is properly powered and also illuminate when the device is transmitting and receiving to assist in verifying acceptable communications. Connection to external devices is provided by a six position screw terminal block on the board. Provisions for strain relief are made within the case by a cable clamp/screw combination. This eliminates unwanted wire disconnects once the screw terminals are wired.

Our Auto baud feature allows the device to operate without the presence of RTS Software. This reduces system overhead and allows the IC485+ to operate flawlessly regardless of the operating system. Onboard LEDs are included to indicate that the device is properly powered and also illuminate when the device is transmitting and receiving to assist in verifying acceptable communications.
