2-PORT RS-232/422/485 PCI HOST ADAPTER 2. Introduction 2.1 Overview The 2-Port RS-232/422/485 PCI Host Adapter is a two-channel PCI-bus serial I/O adapter for PCs and compatibles that supports data rates up to 460.8 kbps. It has two very versatile asynchronous serial ports: They are field-selectable as either RS-232 ports (suitable for communication with modems, printers and plotters) or RS-422/485 ports (suitable for industrial automation and control applications). Configure both of the Adapter

Card Setup NOTE In all cases J1x refers to settings for the first port and J2x refer to settings for the second port. 3.1 RS-485 Enable Modes RS-485 is ideal for multidrop or network environments. RS-485 requires a tri-state driver that will allow the electrical presence of the driver to be removed from the line. The driver is in a tri-state or high-impedance condition when this occurs. Only one driver may be active at a time, and the other driver(s) mu

CHAPTER 3: Card Setup 3.5 Clock Modes The Adapter employs a clocking option that allows you to select from “divide by 4,” “divide by 2,” and “divide by 1” clocking modes. These modes are selected at Headers J1C through J4C. To select the baud rates commonly associated with COM ports (for example, 2400, 4800, 9600, and 19,200 bps, and so on up to 115.2 kbps), place the jumper in the “divide by 4” mode (marked DIV4).
