1.1 Technical
features
•
One local RS232 interface with 9 pole Sub-D socket for the setting
procedure or for normal data exchange. The interface don´t support
hardware handshake during normal operation. Only in a special
setting mode the hardware handshake is provided.
•
5 optical duplex interfaces (transmit and receive connector) for the
connection to multimode fibre optic cables (FO) with FSMA- or ST
plugs. The data-exchange must be realized in a half-duplex mode
with a continuous data stream of less than 254 Byte (max. byte-
length for one continuous data stream in one direction).
•
Settable idle state ´Light ON´ or ´Light OFF´ for each of the optical
interfaces. Factory setting is ´Light OFF´. This state is equal with
those of the optical interfaces from relays from SIEMENS.
•
Wave length of the optical interfaces is 820 nm.
•
The maximum distance between devices connected optically with
multimode-FO (62,5/125 µm) is 1,5 km (approx. 1 mile).
•
Individually settable async. baud rates of 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600,
19200, 38400, 57600 und 115200 Baud for each interface.
•
Individually settable data frames 8N1, 8N2 und 8E1 for each
interface.
•
Wide range power supply with 24 V – 250 V DC
and 110 / 230 V AC.
•
LED indication for operation and date transfer from the Master to
the Slave-interface..
•
One RS485-interface for cascading in a half-duplex-mode between
several Active-Mini-Starcouplers. Transmitting and receiving datas
at the same time is not possible via this interface.
•
Through cascading the whole configuration can be extended up to
128 Slave-interfaces.
•
Plastic housing for 35 mm top-hat rail mounting.
1.1.1 Interfaces
The Active Mini-Starcoupler has at it´s bottom side a 9 pole RS232
interface. This interface is used for parametrization and for central local
access from a PC.
