Versions with Comm Port

The configurable communications port of the DTAM Plus supports RS-485
or RS-232. Use RS-485 to communicate with SLC processors over the
Allen-Bradley DH485 network as:

one of 32 nodes on a multidrop network

direct connection to a single SLC processor or the 1746-BAS module.
Communication via the 1746-BAS module provides direct backplane
access and faster data throughput.

Use RS-232 to communicate point-to-point DF1 to Channel 0 of the PLC-5
processors. You can also use RS-232 to download/upload DTAM Plus
application programs or to use the DTAM Plus in Terminal mode.
