USB-RS232/422

Some of our systems use the serial standard known as RS-232 was the standard for all serial ports on PCs for years (before USB). RS-232 ports are limited to just a few feet of wire and a single piece equipment on each serial port. The RS-232 serial connection is the male DE-09 on the USB-RS232/422. It will plug right into a BR-MiniBrick8, Sd-50 serial cable.

Although the USB-RS232/422 supports both the RS-232 and RS-422 ports, only one should be connected at a time. If you connect both, the data will be transmitted out both ports. Data received from either port will be sent to the PC properly, so long as they don't overlap. If data arrives simultaneously, then the PC will receive gibberish.

• Converts the USB ports found on most computers to RS-422 or RS-232.
