Serial Protocols (RS-232 or RS-485/RS-422)
When setting the RTU-810 as a master unit, it is useful to know what communication
protocol is used. Regarding that, the RTU-810 knows, where inside the data stream the
address byte(s) is (are) located. With that knowledge, the RTU-810 extracts this “logical
address byte” and using the predefined address translation (or routing) table, it can
convert the protocol address into the destination slave address of the radio target device.
The outstation devices do not need any routing or address translation table. As these
units usually are used as “polled devices”, they just answer to the polling request master
address.
The following protocols are supported by the RTU-810.
