R T S P W R R X D T X D Chapter1 Introduction 1.1 Overview The MOXA RS-232 to RS-422/RS-485 bidirectional converters, A50 and A51, are designed to convert unbalanced (single-ended) RS-232 signals to balanced (differential) RS-422/RS-485 signals, and vice versa. They are the best choices for those who want to control devices at longer distance and/or to communicate with several devices via merely one link, particularly in the industry area. Point-to-point, multidrop and simplex operations are ava

Chapter 2 Installation 2.1 Installation Procedure As RS-232 or RS-422/RS-485 port are labeled clearly on the surface of the A50/A51 converter, please prepare the RS-232 cable (refer to Appendix A, RS-232 Cable Wiring) and decide the operation mode as well as 2/4-wire cable (refer to Chapter 3, Operation) in advance. Take off the two screws on top of the converter and open the cover up if you need to change the operation mode via sliding the switches. 2.2 Switch Function Description ON ON 1 1 2

It shows orange when connected and receiving data (In half- duplex mode, it shows red when line is not connected due to the characteristics of ICs for RS-485). RTS indicator is for RS-232 RTS signal. It shows red when connected and RTS signal turned on. It shows green when connected and RTS signal turned off. PWR indicator is red when power is on a
