for Bihl+Wiedemann
AS-i Master

Article no. BW1094

Function

The interface converter is the ideal interface between the RS 232 interface of the PC and the RS 485 interface of the AS-i Gateways. The converter is very compact and does not need any additional external power supply. Therefore it is also suitable in mobile use with a laptop or a notebook. The converter is simply inserted between AS-i Gateway with RS 232 connector cable and PC.

Only one device with RS 485 interface can be connected to the converter.

The RS 232C/RS 485 converter can be used under different operating systems. Using the AS-i Control Tools for Windows an AS-i Master with RS 485 interface can be handled now just as an AS-i Master with RS 232 interface. The RS 232C/RS 485 converter works up to transfer rates of 57600 Baud.
