Series User’s Manual
This chapter provides guidelines to what is needed to set up and
install an
MIR
network. A quick hookup scheme is provided that lets
you configure modules before they are installed in a network. To help
you connect
MIR
modules with sensor inputs, several examples
are provided.
Be sure to plan the layout and configuration of your network
carefully before you start. Guidelines regarding layout are given in
Appendix E: RS-485 Network.
2.1 System Requirements to set up an MIR network
The following list gives an overview of what is needed to setup,

• A host computer, such as an IBM PC/AT compatible, that can
output ASCII characters with a
USB or
RS-232C port.
• Power supply for the ADAM modules (+1

Host computer
Any computer or terminal that can output in ASCII format over
either RS-232 or
USB
can be connected as the host computer.
USB or
RS-232/RS-485 Converter is required to transform the host signals
to the correct RS-485 protocol.
The converter also provides opto-isolation and transformer-based
isolation to protect your equipment.
