Introduction Introduction Overview The OMG-COMM2-EX provides the PC with 2 asynchronous serial ports providing a versatile interface field selectable as RS-232 for modems, printers and plotters, as well as RS-422/485 for industrial automation and control applications. What’s Included The OMG-COMM2-EX is shipped with the following items. If any of these items are missing or damaged, contact the supplier. • OMG-COMM2-EX Serial I/O Adapter • Software Factory Default Settings The OM

Card Setup Card Setup The OMG-COMM2-EX contains several jumper straps which must be set for proper operation. Address Selection Each port on the OMG-COMM2-EX occupies eight consecutive I/O locations. A DIP-switch is used to set the base address for these locations. Be careful when selecting the base address as some selections conflict with existing ports. The following table shows several examples that typically do not cause a conflict. SW1 sets the I/O address for port 1 of the OMG-CO

Card Setup Port Enable / Disable Each port on the OMG-COMM2-EX can be enabled or disabled with switch position 8 on the DIP-switch. The port is enabled with the switch ‘On’ or ‘Closed’ and disabled when ‘Off’ or ‘Open’. If any port is disabled, be sure to disable the interrupt request for that port by removing the IRQ jumper. Interface Selection RS-422/485 To select the RS-422/485 mode of operation install dip shunts in sockets found at E6 and E7. E6 sets Port 1 and E7 sets Port 2.

Card Setup Interrupt Modes Headers E9 and E10 select the interrupt modes for each port. Each port must be set in the correct mode to insure proper installation. E10 sets Port 1 and E9 sets Port 2 ‘N’ indicates the ( N)ormal, single interrupt per port mode. ‘S’ Indicates the (S)hared interrupt mode, which allows more than one port to access a single IRQ. Any two or more ports can share a common IRQ by placing the jumpers on the same IRQ setting, and setting the appropriate selections at

Card Setup Set the jumper to ‘S’ if you are using more than one OMG-COMM2-EX in a bus or you wish to completely remove the pull-down resistor for hardware compatibility. Setting the adapter in this configuration when it is not accompanied by a pull-down resistor will prevent the ports from triggering an interrupt.

Installation Installation The OMG-COMM2-EX can be installed in any of the PC expansion slots, but to access the ‘AT’ or (E)ISA IRQs (10 - 15) it must be installed in one of the 16 bit slots. The OMG-COMM2-EX contains several jumper straps for each port which must be set for proper operation prior to installing the adapter into the comp uter. 1. Turn off PC power. Disconnect the power cord. 2. Remove the PC case cover. 3. Locate an available slot and remove the blank metal slot cove

Appendix C - Electrical Interface Appendix C - Electrical Interface RS-232 Quite possibly the most widely used communication standard is RS-232. This implementation has been defined and revised several times and is often referred to as RS-232 or EIA/TIA-232. The IBM PC computer defined the RS-232 port on a 9 pin D sub connector and subsequently the EIA/TIA approved this implementation as the EIA/TIA-574 standard. This standard is defined as the 9-Position Non-Synchronous Interface betwe

Appendix C - Electrical Interface RS-485 RS-485 is backwardly compatible with RS-422; however, it is optimized for partyline or multi-drop applications. The output of the RS-422/485 driver is capable of being Active (enabled) or Tri-State (disabled). This capability allows multiple ports to be connected in a multi-drop bus and selectively polled. RS-485 allows cable lengths up to 4000 feet and data rates up to 10 Megabits per second. The signal levels for RS-485 are the same as those def

Appendix D - Asynchronous Communications Appendix D - Asynchronous Communications Serial data communications implies that individual bits of a character are transmitted consecutively to a receiver that assembles the bits back into a character. Data rate, error checking, handshaking, and character framing (start/stop bits) are pre-defined and must correspond at both the transmitting and receiving ends. Asynchronous communications is the standard means of serial data communication for PC
