Figure 16 - RS232 Typical Layout
The BIS M-41_-068-001-00-S115 Compact processor is designed for point-to-point RFID
applications, where the distance from host to compact processor is less than 15 meters (50
feet). The compact processor connects directly to a serial communications port on a host
computer via an RS232-compatible serial interface cable.
1. To mount the BIS M-41_ Compact processor:
a) For the BIS M-410 Compact processor, attach to the polycarbonate mounting bracket
(for metallic isolation) using the two sets of M4 screws, washers and nuts provided as
shown in
Figure 2 . Fasten the other end of the mounting bracket to your work area.
Tighten all screws to 0.7 Nm (6 lbs per inch).
b) For the BIS M-411 Compact processor, fasten it to the mounting surface using two
M5 (#10) screws, washers and nuts (not provided). Tighten all screws to between 1.3
and 1.7 Nm (12-15 lbs per inch).
2. Connect the BCC0ETJ M12 8-pin female connector to the M12 8-pin male connector on
the Compact processor. Connect the BCC0ETJ 9-pin female D-sub connector to an
RS232 COM port on the host computer. Tighten the cable’s two locking thumbscrews.
3. Connect the power supply to the VDC (red) and GND (black) wires on the BCC0ETJ
cable.
4. Apply power to the compact processor after all cable connections have been made. The
LEDs on the unit will flash.
5. On the host computer, set COM port parameters to: 9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no
parity and no handshaking.
