5. How to setup the decoders
This chapter describes how the decoders can be connected to the PC. This can be done via a direct
connection via RS232 communication or by using the RS485 network interface.
5.1 Direct communication via 3-wire RS232 interface
The LID665A proximity decoders and the LID650A handsfree decoders can communicate via a direct
3-wire RS232 connection.
NOTES:
•
Use a 4-wire double twisted pair cable. Put the Txd and Rxd in 2 separate twisted pairs, where the
other wire of each twisted pairs will be Gnd. This results in 1 twisted pair with Txd and Gnd and 1
twisted pair of Rxd and Gnd.
•
Don’t exceed cable lengths of 14 meters (46ft). Use repeaters when distances are bigger.
