External Serial Adapter
The ANC-6090 adapter provides the PC user with a low cost solution to change serial comport signals into RS-422 signals to control
multimedia equipment (VCR, DDR with DB9 SMPTE interface). |
Features
- RoHS Compliant - Lead Free parts and manufacturing
- Pin connections on RS422 side mate directly to SMPTE multimedia units (Sony, Panasonic, Grass Valley, etc.)
- Latest Surface Mount Technology (SMT) for low power and small size.
- Plugs into DB-9 PC serial comport
- Powered from serial port for most installations.
- Transmit data at distances up to 4,000 feet (1,219 m).
- 4-wire full duplex or 2-wire half duplex operation (RTS for transmit control)
- Master/slave jumper selectable.
- Baud rates to 1 MBaud
- ANC-6090S same adapter for internal PC mounting
Overview
Hardware Flexibility RS-422/485 -
signal levels meet or exceed the Recommended Standards (RS). The
RS-232C side mates directly with a PC's DB-9 serial port connector.
This makes the adapter an ideal solution for connecting external
RS-485/422 equipment up to your PC or portable computer. The adapter
finds wide use in high-speed long distance serial communication, or to
interface a PC with equipment that uses an RS-422 type input/output. The
adapters are powered by the host computer system's signal lines. This
eliminates the need for an additional external power supply making the
adapters an ideal choice for portable use for many installations.
Extended cable runs or terminated connections require more
current than the serial port power can provide, so the RS-422 connector
can accept +3 to +12v DC at 150 milliamps to provide the added power to
the adapter and we also offer an ANC-6090X version adapter which includes
an external power supply connected to the adapter.
Software Compatibility Because
the adapter just converts RS-232C to and from RS-485/422 level signals, no
specific software modifications are required to operate the adapter with
off-the-shelf applications that use the serial communications port.
The data direction can be changed on the adapter by using the RTS
line. See our ANC-6085 (DB-9 connector as
6090) or ANC-6185
(terminal block / RJ-45 connector) adapters if automatic transmit/receive
is desired.
Easy to Use Shipped ready for
installation. Jumpers are pre installed for the most commonly
applied configuration and a comprehensive user's manual
is included.
Warranty Every Antona product is
built and tested to meet high standards of quality and reliability.
Our products are covered with a one year warranty.
