General information
either full- or half-duplex. Half-duplex communication requires flow control which the full-duplex Optomux protocol does not support. The
AC8 serves two functions: it provides RS-422/485 conversion to RS-232, and also provides the flow control signals required for half-duplex
communication.
The AC8 adapter card is a communications interface board that provides bi-directional RS-232 to half duplex RS-485/422 conversion,
The AC8 provides transient protection on the RS-422/485 port. The modem adapter card operates as a half or full duplex device with
The AC8 requires a 5 VDC power supply. The AC8A is powered by an on-board 115 VAC power supply.
Optomux uses a RS-422/485 serial communications link. Most modems use the RS-232 serial standard. In addition, modems may be
