The CS-428/9AT converts RS232 signals to RS422 or RS485. It is an efficient solution for applying the advantages of RS422/485 to RS232 devices. It operates without the need to install any software. A switch on the top of the unit allows you to switch between RS422 or RS482. Under a 1:N communication environment, if more than one device sends data at the same time, there is an electrical collision that leads to an error. In order to prevent this, data I/O control is necessary at certain points. The CS-428/9AT-PRO performs automatic toggling by hardware, so you don't need to worry about writing any code to handle flow control. Similarly, Echo Mode operation, when necessary, is handled by the hardware. RS232 to RS422/RS485 Converter Features - Fully compatible with PC serial COM ports
