Instantly get one or two extra high-speed RS-232/422/485 ports. The power is derived from the USB port, so there are no power adapters to deal with. Thismakes the ADAM-4561/4562 especially suitable for modems, printers, POS systems and industrial control devices.
Compliant with USB V1.1, ADAM-4561/4562 features several powerful functions such as high-speed 115.2 kbps transmission, support for various operating systems, independentRS-232/422/485 ports and more. By simply plugging in a USB hub, ADAM-4561/4562 eliminates the configuration issues associated with high-priced, older card solutions. Youonly have to install the drivers, no need to set cards slots, IRQ addresses, DMA channels, or device addresses. This reduces programming effort.

Universal Serial Bus (USB) has become the connectivity workhorse of today’s PCs, replacing the familiar serial ports. However, many commercial and industrial devices still use the RS-422/485 interface. To connect these devices to modern PCs and provide protection from electrical transients, you need a simple and reliable conversion solution. The USOPTL4-4P offers this solution and is ideal for applications requiring long-range or multi-drop capabilities. It features include a high retention USB interface, removable terminal blocks on the serial side and LEDs to indicate data flow. Simply plug the converter into an available USB port on your computer or USB hub and install the drivers supplied on CD ROM. The device will show up as additional COM port in the Windows Device Manager, which is fully compatible with your Windows applications. A one meter USB cable is included.

Built to rugged specifications with 2 kV of isolation, it will protect your PC from hazardous ground loops. The compact size makes it perfect for field service use but, it is also suitable for instrumentation and laboratory applications. Full speed (12 Mbps) USB 2.0 support allows connectivity with modern computer technology. The RS-232 port is a DB9 male connector wired as a DTE with full hardware handshake support. It can handle standard RS-232 data rates up to 460.8 Kbps. Drivers support Windows platforms up to Windows 8 in 32 and 64 bit implementations. Includes USB cable and a driver disk. The “locked serial number” format uses the same serial number (same COM port) that is associated with a given model type. If the converter is shared among several computers, like field service laptops, a locked serial number model lets you plug-and-play without having to worry about matching the two.

Universal Serial Bus (USB) has become the connectivity workhorse of today’s PCs, replacing the familiar serial port. However, many commercial and industrial devices still use the RS-485 interface. To connect these devices to modern PCs, you need a simple and reliable conversion solution. The 485USB9F-2W-LS offers RS-485 2-wire conversion in a space saving, USB port-powered package. Simply install the drivers and plug the converter into an available USB port on your computer or USB hub. The device will appear as an additional COM port in the Windows Device Manager which is fully compatible with your Windows applications. A one meter USB cable is included. Locked Serial Numbers Explained – The “locked serial number” format uses the same serial number (same COM port) that is associated with a given model. If the converter is shared among several computers, like field service laptops, a locked serial number model lets you plug and play without having to worry about matching the two.

Locked Serial Numbers Explained – We configure our single-port USB to serial converters in two ways. In standard format, each product has a unique serial number. “Locked serial” format uses the same serial number that is associated with a model type.

Universal Serial Bus – USB has become the connectivity workhorse of today’s PCs, replacing classic serial ports. But, many commercial and industrial devices still use RS-422/485 interfaces. To connect these devices to modern PCs, you need robust and reliable conversion solutions. USB ports are becoming more common on commercial and industrial equipment such as point-of-sale peripherals, medical devices, scientific instrumentation, laboratory equipment and other devices or in environments where surges, spikes and ground loops are likely to occur. RS-485 Control – No special software is required to control the RS-485 receiver or transmit line driver. The driver is automatically enabled during each byte transmitted in RS-485 mode. The transmitter is always enabled in RS-422 mode. The receiver is tri-stated during each byte transmitted in the echo-off mode. The receiver is always enabled in the echo-on mode.
