Case 3) RS232 +RS485
Master controller settings:
ControllerAddr = 1..32
COM1 Mode = DIRECT
COM2 Mode = DIRECT
It is possible to make a RS232 direct connection with IL-NT-RS232 module on one side and IL-NT-
RS232-485 module on the other side.
Alternative connection using external RS232-RS422/485 converter:
Recommend external converter:
ADVANTECH
– ADAM 4520: RS232 to RS422/485 converter, DIN rail, automatic RS485 bus
supervision, no external data flow control signals, galvanic isolated, baud rate 38400 or 56000 bps.
Any connected RS 232 to RS 422/485 converter has to be set to passive DSR signal (when DSR
connected) after switch on.
Function description
Remote display IL-NT-RD works as remote display and control of the master InteliLite-NT or InteliDrive
Lite controller. It is supposed and highly recommended that both, remote display and master are using
the same HW type and model of controller. Another types and models of master and remote display
are not supported nor tested. All remote display’s LEDs shows the same state as corresponding LEDs
on master controller. Front panel buttons on both controllers work in the same way. Genset/Engine
can be controlled from remote display as well as from master controller. User can switch screens, set
password, change setpoints and view history records.
All IL-NT-RD screens Init, Measure, Setpoints and History display the same data like in the master
controller.
Master device is always able to work without connected Remote display.
Interruption of the serial line between master device and Remote display has no effect to the master
controller.
If the serial line between master device and remote display is interrupted, or communication cannot be
established, remote display shows it’s Init screen and message “Trying” and all LED’s are off.
Once remote display finds compatible master it shows “Preparing” and downloads configuration table
from master controller.
After the configuration from master is downloaded remote display jump to master controllers Init
screen and all LEDs and blinking.
It is possible to switch to remote displays Init screen to check it’s version and serial number of used
controller and communication status by pressing PAGE button for 3 seconds.
