Fig. 4. Locking sleeve for fixation of the underwater connector
Connect the M12 industrial connector to the device you are using. Take care, that the pins
are aligned to the corresponding sockets and turn the locking screw clockwise into the
connector.
The
OSCAR
can also be equipped with a fixed cable with M12 industrial plug.
3.1.2 EIA 232 / 485
The
OSCAR
sensor provides two lines for digital, serial communication with a control device.
It will thereby support the EIA 232 (RS-232) and EIA 485 (RS-485) standards. Via the web
interface (see Fig. 20) it is possible to switch these standards.
Both EIA 232 and EIA 485 are voltage interfaces (as opposed to a current interface like the
analog type). With EIA 232 voltages are in the range from -15 V to +15 V, with EIA 485 from -
5 V to +5 V, towards GND.
The data is transmitted on a line in EIA 232 for each direction, wherein the RX line for the
communication from controller to sensor and for TX line the communication from sensor to
controller is used.
The EIA 485 system uses differential balanced lines, whereby the 'B' line transmits the
inverted signal of the 'A' line. The differential value between lines A and B is the decisive
factor for the transmission robustness against conducted noise signals.
