Adapter for EZ-ARRAY ® 5-pin Communications Cable to PC USB Port
Features
• Easy-to-use USB-to-485 adapter connects to a USB port on a computer or USB hub.
• Easy plug-and-play and hot plug features simplify connection of an RS-422 or RS-485
serial device.
Overview
When plugged into the USB port, the USB industrial I/O adapter is automatically detected
and installed. There are no IRQ or COM port conflicts, since the port requires no
additional IRQ, DMA or memory. The adapter’s RS-422/485 port functions as a native
Windows COM port, and it is compatible with Windows serial communication applications.
Each port is individually configurable. The INTUSB485-1 is powered via the USB
interface; no additional power supply is needed.
When using the PC-based EZ-ARRAY Control Software to configure the EZ-ARRAY, the
INTUSB485-1 provides a quick solution to convert from a universal serial bus interface to
the EZ-ARRAY RS-485 interface.
Simply connect the EZ-ARRAY cable (model MQDMC-5..) to the terminal strip to
configure the EZ-ARRAY receiver (refer to the EZ-ARRAY Users Manual p/n 130426 for
configuration information). Included with the INTUSB485-1 is the USB cable and supplied
software to connect with the PC. A four-position DIP switch on the external housing must
be set as shown in Figure 1 (default positions), and eight jumpers inside the housing must
be configured as shown in Figure 2.
