For many years, people have been predicting the demise of serial communications. But, as you know, there are
millions of nodes still performing in the field. To keep this perfectly good equipment up and operating, B&B
Electronics has developed the most extensive line of serial conversion and isolation products on the market today.
Serial products from B&B Electronics are built tough to keep your equipment up and your data flowing. Optical
isolation is built in to most of our products. This method of isolation is far superior to galvanic isolation, since there is
no physical connection across the isolation zone. Visit www.bb-elec.com/Isolation. Automatic Send Data Control
circuitry simplifies applications. No need for special programming to make your devices talk.

Why offer optional power supplies with port powered converters?


Simply put, all RS-232 ports are not created equal. Many laptop PCs for example, deliberately reduce power to the RS-232 port to
save the battery. And, if you are working at the distance limits of RS-422 or 485, you might need an extra boost. Its also possible
that your application does not include and RS-232 handshake line which carries most of the power. For the majority of
applications though, port power is all our efficient converters need to get the job done. We just want to be sure that youre covered,
no matter what.

Technical Support Note


Kelly On Why Send Data Control (SDC) Makes Serial Conversion Easier
As operating systems become more complex, it is increasingly difficult to control an RS-485 driver
with standard software and the RTS line. This is especially true in Windows and multi-tasking
operating systems. With B&Bs Automatic Send Data Control circuit, driver control is in the converter
hardware, so you dont have to work with software at all. The circuit monitors data flow and enables
the driver during transmission and automatically disables it when no data is being sent. There is no
need to rework software or install new drivers. Most B&B Electronics RS-232 to RS-485 converters and
RS-485 serial cards include Automatic Send Data Control.

Fiber optic cable carries serial data reliably up to 4 kilometers

optic data transmission uses light in glass fiber cable as a
communication medium. It is ideal for spanning areas with
severe interference, such as near heavy electrical equipment,
welding or radio transmissions. Being non-electric, fiber optic
cable will not pick up any noise.

transparently over longer distances and with greater
reliability. These models support TD, RD, RTS and CTS and
provide the inherent immunity of fiber to data line surges,
spikes and ground loops.

Power surges and spikes are created by electrical equipment,


by nearby lightning strikes and from other sources. They are
picked up by copper data lines and transmitted to the
connected devices, garbling messages and damaging
equipment. Fiber optic cables do not transmit power spikes or
surges, providing the most reliable system possible. Ground
loops interfere with data communications through copper.
Using fiber optics eliminates ground loops by not providing a
conductive path for the ground.

Mario: Extend data signals with signal repeaters
The standards for RS-232 data communication call for a maximum range of 50 feet (15 m) and the
RS-422/485 standards call for 4,000 feet (1200 m) maximum. While these standard maximums can
sometimes be stretched, the more positive method of using serial communications over longer distances is
the installation of repeaters at intervals in the data line. Repeaters refresh the data signals by regenerating
the signal. Repeaters allow another 50 to 100 feet of range for RS-232 lines, and 4,000 feet for each repeater
added to an RS-422 or RS-485 line. RS-485 repeaters divide the load into multiple segments and each
refreshed signal is capable of driving another 4,000 feet of cable and 31 more RS-485 nodes. Models
485OP, 485OPDR, and 485OPDRi isolate and repeat RS-422 and RS-485 signals. See above & pages 16, 22.

The Model 232SPS2 converts data from a parallel port to a


serial communication format, or from a serial port to a parallel
communication format. Connects directly between computer
and printer without making any software modifications. The
serial port has a female DB25 connector and supports X-On/XOff control as well as hardware handshaking. It supports
standard baud rates from 1200 to 115.2 kbps, and Acknowledge,
Busy, and Strobe on the parallel port. 8-position dipswitch
configures the 232SPS2 to match system. The unit can be portpowered using DTR and RTS on the serial port or powered
externally using 7 to 18 VDC. A power supply is available.

Each side can also supply or accept hardware or software


handshaking, allowing the higher speed device to be located
on either port. A PC is used to configure the Model 232BRC,
but once configured, the module may be installed on any
system. Non-volatile memory maintains all parameters when
power is removed. Each port buffers 16K bytes of data. LED
indicators on each port signals when data is present in the
buffer. The connectors are DB9 female on port A, DB9 male on
port B. Model 232BRC requires 12 VDC @ 100 mA. Module
dimensions are 5.8 x 3.6 x 1.2 in (14.6 x 9.1 x 3.0 cm). A power

CAN in industrial automation


The multi-layer structure of Controller Area Network (CAN)
allows any station on a serial bus to communicate with any
other station. There are also benefits in central control and selfdiagnosis and correction of transmission errors. A number of
CAN-based higher level protocols have been developed for use
in industrial automation applications. CAN Application Layer
(CAL), CAN Kingdom, CAN-open, DeviceNet and Smart
Distributed System are just a few of these variations.

Joe: How to connect up to 17 devices to one serial port
B&B Electronics smart switches can be used to connect one RS-232 port to four or more different
serial devices. These switches can be controlled in two different ways.
The first way is smart switch mode. In this mode, the switch is controlled by sending a preamble
(usually three characters) to the master port. As soon as the preamble code is received, the selected
slave port is connected to the master port.
The second way the switch can be controlled is port combiner mode. In this mode, a slave port
can access the master port by asserting a handshake line. If none of the slave ports have their
handshake line asserted, the switch can be controlled using the preamble codes. There is no delay
through non-buffered switches. LEDs indicate which port is selected.

An Introduction to PCI Technology

What are universal PCI cards?


In the days of yore, the PCI bus used 5 V signaling on the PCI
connector. Some PCI buses, including many of todays newest
PCs use 3.3 V signaling. A keyed notch in the card prevents it
from being plugged into the wrong version of the bus. If you
buy a 5 V PCI card, it wont fit into a 3.3 V bus, and a 3.3 V
PCI card wont fit into a 5 V bus. A situation fraught with peril

for the casual customer! Not to worry, all of the PCI cards in
the following pages follow the Universal PCI specification,
officially termed PCI V2.3. As you might guess, Universal PCI
is compatible with both 3.3 V and 5 V systems. To tell if your
card is Universal PCI, look for two keyed notches in the bus
connector, indicating that it will fit (and work!) in any PCI
system.

Converters

What about the ISA bus?


Need serial cards for the ISA bus? Were happy to say that B&B Electronics continues to stock and support ISA cards (to be honest,
some of us even feel an emotional attachment to these cards). To see our full line of multi-interface and isolated ISA cards click
over to www.bb-elec.com

Multi-interface PCI (page 34)

These optically isolated members of the MIport family of PCI cards are robust enough for the
toughest and most mission-critical environments. One, two and four port versions offer the
flexibility of RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485!

Add serial or parallel ports to your laptop for mobile and field service applications. One, two
and four ports are available in both RS-232 and RS-422/485 versions. Rugged versions
featuring a permanently attached cable are also available.

ExpressCards add 1 to 2 high-speed serial ports (RS-232 or RS-422/485) or 1 parallel port to


notebooks and other mobile devices. High throughput and low latency is comparable to
native, built-in COM ports.

Isolated serial card design requires attention to three things. Special optocouplers isolate the serial
signals from the PCI bus. Unique isolated DC-to-DC power supplies provide power to each of the
ports and give us port-to-port isolation. Finally, the
circuit board uses strict spacing rules we call these
Isolation zones on the 3PCIOU2
isolation zones. Surges follow the path of least
resistance, and a tiny gap between traces is an easy
path for surges to reach the delicate computer bus,
bypassing expensive isolation components entirely.

that the added ports more closely emulate those of built-in


ports. In other words, higher throughput and lower latency is
commonly better with ExpressCards based on PCIe designs.
These ExpressCards are designed in 34mm format which means
they will fit into any ExpressCard slot.

ExpressCards are another great way to add serial and parallel


ports to notebooks and other portable devices. Traditionally this
has been done with a USB or PCMCIA interface. However,
many portables no longer ship with a PCMCIA slot available.

Virtual COM Driver Software for Windows - installs virtual COM ports, viewable in the Windows Device Manager under Ports
(COM & LPT). The driver installs a virtual COM on windows which maps the virtual COM port to the IP address and
TCP/UDP port of the serial server, enabling the Windows applications to access remote serial devices over an IP-based Ethernet
LAN. Any program running on the computer and using Windows-based COM ports can access the serial devices attached to the
server. The LAN becomes transparent to the serial device and the software running on the PC.
TCP Probe - selectable protocol ensures reliable communications in Virtual COM mode or Paired mode. This feature restores the
connections if communications are temporarily lost at either end due to loss of power or Ethernet connection.

Take Advantage of Fiber Optic Options from B&B Electronics!


Vlinx Serial Servers have the largest selection of standard fiber optic port options available. If your Ethernet network is using
single-mode or multi-mode fiber optics, our serial servers are the natural choice for serial device connectivity. Fiber Optics
offers the following benefits:
Immune to Noise, EMI, RFI
No Cross Talk
Signal Security
Lower Bit Error Rate
Fiber Optics is especially advantageous for long distance communications. The standard CAT 5 network is limited to about 100
meters. With fiber optics you can extend that range. B&B Electronics Vlinx Serial Servers have options for multi-mode and
single-mode fiber. Multi-mode fiber extends the range to 2.5 miles (4 km). Single-mode fiber extends the distance to 9 miles or
15 km. We even have 40 and 80 km options available. Call for details!

Remote Employee Access at Distribution Center


Bill is the security manager at a large distribution center. His facility uses a card-swipe system
to control employee access. Recently, the company expanded a parking lot and added an
additional pedestrian turnstile entry point. The trouble is, the card readers use serial data to
communicate with a PC on the security network and this entry point was too far away.
Luckily, Bill just received B&B Electronics catalog, featuring the VESR90x Serial-to-Ethernet
Servers with fiber optic network connections. Since his fence-line motion sensors were
networked with multi-mode fiber optics, he simply piggy backed on this network to
connect the new turnstile to the main PC. The VESR series is also designed for industrial
applications and feature easy DIN rail mounting, multiple serial port options, and web-based
management. Thanks to B&B Electronics, the facility is secure and Bill can breathe easy.

Industrial devices (PLCs, drives, motor controls, process analyzers) OPC server applications
PC controllers (Think and Do, Steeplechase)
Vlinx Modbus Gateways bridge devices on Modbus serial networks (RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485) with those on Modbus TCP
networks, allowing seamless integration of any Modbus device. Each serial port is accessible over a LAN or WAN by up to 16
simultaneous Modbus TCP masters. MESR series Modbus Gateways boast an extensive line-up of Ethernet port configurations
from standard RJ-45 copper to almost any fiber optic option. Versions are available with an additional Ethernet port that functions
like an Ethernet switch, allowing pass-through connectivity for other Ethernet devices. The port can be used to daisy chain
multiple gateways.

Take Advantage of Fiber Optic Options from B&B Electronics!


Vlinx Serial Servers have the largest selection of standard fiber optic port options available. If your Ethernet network is using
single-mode or multi-mode fiber optics, our serial servers are the natural choice for serial device connectivity. Fiber Optics
offers the following benefits:
Immune to Noise, EMI, RFI
No Cross Talk
Signal Security
Lower Bit Error Rate
Fiber Optics is especially advantageous for long distance communications. The standard CAT 5 network is limited to about 100
meters. With fiber optics you can extend that range. B&B Electronics Vlinx Serial Servers have options for multi-mode and
single-mode fiber. Multi-mode fiber extends the range to 2.5 miles (4 km). Single-mode fiber extends the distance to 9 miles or
15 km. We even have 40 and 80 km options available. Call for details!

VFG1000

Protocol Conversion - Everyone struggles with connectivity issues. A PLC, servo, barcode
scanner, or a sensor with serial output, something will communicate with a protocol different
than the other system components. The Vlinx ConnectPro solves these connectivity issues.
Data Logger - Everyone is trying to improve productivity. Data needs to be gathered, stored, and
analyzed. Many SCADA systems can do this, but the cost and complexity is prohibitive in many
applications. The Vlinx Fieldbus Gateway collects the required data and provides it in the
needed format. VFG2000 and VFG3000 offer additional features beyond VFG1000. CompactFlash
card slot allows data to be collected and stored in simple CSV file format allowing common
applications, such as Microsoft Excel and Access, to view and manage the data later. Free
Websync utility helps synchronize the files with a PCs hard drive for permanent storage.
Virtual HMI - Everyone is interested in lowering costs. Knowing what a process or machine is
doing and making adjustments from a remote location saves time and travel costs. The Vlinx
ConnectPros virtual HMI and Ethernet gateway provides advanced remote monitoring and
control to any machine - on the network, from across the world. Built-in Web server allows log
files to be retrieved manually and provides access to the unique "Virtual HMI". Monitor or
control the HMI using Internet Explorer from a PC anywhere in the world.

Wind Farms are gaining attention as an energy source that requires no fuel, produces no pollution, and is virtually
inexhaustible. Wind turbines are linked together for operation and energy monitoring. This poses a unique set of
challenges since the layout of a wind farm can span across large distances. Keeping the data protected while
communicating between wind turbines, and also communicating from the base to the top of each, can be achieved
through fiber optic Ethernet connections. Check out the B&B Electronics full line of Ethernet switches, paying close
attention to the 8-port versions with 3 fiber ports. Simply put, 3 fiber ports protect In, Out and Up communications in
the wind farm application.
B&B Electronics Unmanaged Ethernet Switches and Media Converters can be ordered with an almost infinite
variety of port configurations. Visit www.bb-elec.com/ElinxConfigurator

PoE (IEEE 802.3af)-EIRP models only


PoE stands for Power-over-Ethernet, which is just what it says. Power is transmitted over the Ethernet cable along with the data
lines. Each PoE switch has a set of ports that is classified as power source equipment (PSE). These ports can be used to power
IEEE 802.3af compliant powered devices (PD), eliminating the need for a separate power line to be run to each end device. A
whole new set of applications become feasible with PoE switches due to reduced installation costs through ease of setup and
the ability to remotely power end devices. Some common Ethernet devices that a PoE may be able to power are: Access Points,
IP Cameras, Serial Servers, and Ethernet I/O. The PoE ports on these switches follow Alternative A standards and are limited to
15.4 Watts of power output per port. These switches require a 48VDC power supply.

Gigabit
B&B Electronics line of unmanaged (EIR400 series) and managed (EIR600 series) Ethernet switches address applications
requiring Gigabit (1000Base) Ethernet. All of these switches are DIN or panel mountable and accommodate two power inputs
along with an Alarm Relay Output. The T models are wide temperature rated at -40 to 75C. For added flexibility and future
expansion options, many models support a dual function port, where the copper Ethernet and SFP ports are shared. The wide
range power input on these models makes each switch suitable for a variety of applications.

Overview
The Elinx EIR500 and EIR600 series Industrial Managed
Ethernet Switches provide powerful functionality in an IP30
DIN mount package. Designed for industrial applications,
these switches contain all the standard features of other
switches, such at IGMP Snooping, Port Based VLAN, 802.1Q
Tag VLAN, auto MDI/MDI-X, auto negotiation, store and
forward switching, STP, RSTP, Web Based Management, Ingress
Packet Filtering, and Egress Rate Control.

These managed switches also come with important industrial


features to ensure reliability in an industrial application.
Redundant Ring Technology with coupling ring and dual
homing allows automatic recovery in less than 20ms for EIR600
series and less than 300ms for EIR500 series. Dual power inputs
ensure reliability. A alarm output for port failure notification. If
GIGABIT Ethernet is required, choose a product from the
EIR600 series.

Conforms to IEEE 802.3 10Base-T, 802.3u 100Base-TX

SNMP, Web management, RMON supported

Web-based Management
Each switch has an embedded HTML web site residing in flash
memory, offering advanced management features and allows
users to manage the switch from anywhere on the network
through a standard web browser.

Port Mirroring
Port mirroring is a method for monitoring traffic in switched
networks. Packets transmitted and received by a port can be
mirrored to another specified port. This allows network
administrators to monitor traffic.

VLAN Configuration
A Virtual LAN (VLAN) is a logical network grouping that
limits the broadcast domain. This allows you to isolate network
traffic so that members of a VLAN will only receive traffic from
other members of the same VLAN. Creating a VLAN from a
switch is the logical equivalent of reconnecting a group of
network devices to another Layer 2 switch. However, since it is
a virtual network, the network devices remain connected to the
same switch physically. Both port-based and 802.1Q (taggedbased) VLAN are supported.

IGMP
The Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP) is a
communications protocol used to manage the membership of
Internet Protocol multicast groups. IGMP is used by IP hosts to
establish multicast group memberships. This allows the port to
detect IGMP query and report packets and manage IP multicast
traffic through the switch.

A power company in the Rockies uses Ethernet switches from B&B Electronics to remotely monitor and manage hard-to-reach
substations. No need to send a maintenance electrician out every time something needs to be reprogrammed.

Electricity - we dont think about it until it's missing. An electrical power substation uses transformers to step
down high voltages from the transmission grid to lower levels for distribution to homes and businesses. A bus splits
electricity to distribution lines. Circuit breakers and switches can disconnect it from the transmission grid or the
distribution lines for maintenance, or because of fault conditions such as lighting, overloads, or equipment damage.
These power faults must be identified and resolved quickly in order to restore power - and profit.
Check out B&B Electronics full line of Industrial Ethernet Managed Switches. With reliable, ultra-fast recovery,
see why these switches will keep your applications, and your revenue, up and running.

Redundant Ring Group of Industrial Ethernet Switches

Elinx Industrial Switches

These industrial switches incorporate a


proprietary redundant ring protocol
that helps your network recover from
connection failures within 20ms for
EIR600 series and 300ms for EIR500
series. The redundant ring algorithm is
much like the spanning tree protocol
(STP) algorithm but it has a much
faster recovery time.
Dual Homing prevents loss of
connectivity between the redundant
ring and the upper level switch.
Coupling Ring connects two
redundant rings together to create
additional redundancy.

Media converters allow two Ethernet devices with different


physical media to communicate with each other. In most
applications the media converter converts a copper Ethernet
connection to fiber media. The fiber media could be multimode or single-mode fiber and usually consists of an ST or SC
style connector. Some common reasons for using media
converters are Ethernet extension, noise immunity, and
protection against surges and spikes.
Have you ever needed to convert your multi-mode fiber into
single-mode fiber due to equipment upgrades or pre-existing

fiber runs? Or have you simply needed to extend Ethernet


beyond its normal capabilities? B&B Electronics also offers
media converters with fiber-to-fiber conversions. This is
extremely handy for retrofit applications with existing fiber
where new equipment uses an opposite fiber type.
You may even find that some new applications require a
mixture of single-mode and multi-mode fiber due to
equipment used or budgetary reasons. Choose from many
in-stock port combinations or configure and price your port
needs online.

Extend Ethernet distances


Media converters do more than just convert copper Ethernet signals to fiber. They allow the Ethernet LAN to be extended
beyond the normal 100 meter limit. By using a pair of media converters, LANs can be extended up to 2km with multi-mode
fiber and up to 20km with single-mode fiber. Extension of LAN distances now make it possible to communicate with remotely
located Ethernet enabled devices that were not formerly possible to reach in the past. The application could be as simple as
getting data from one end of the warehouse to the other, tying two buildings together, enabling communications in a tank farm,
or monitoring a SCADA system at a waste water plant.
Isolate and protect
Another great benefit inherently built into a media converter is the isolation factor. Since the data is communicating via a fiber
optic connection, the data is transmitted by light therefore no conductive wires connect the far ends of the system. This
eliminates the potential for ground loop problems and offers additional protection from RFI/EMI interference that may be
present along the cable run.

Choose between rugged DIN rail mount or desk/wall/rack mount designs


From rugged DIN rail mount designs to traditional desk/wall/rack mount designs B&B Electronics has a media converter that
will fit your application needs. Besides the EIR-x-xx and EIS-x-xx models found on these pages, B&B Electronics also offers the
EIR102 series. If you are looking for the most robust features in a DIN rail or panel-mount design, the EIR-x-xx series is the
product for you. For applications not requiring wide temperature ranges or built-in alarms, the EIS-x-xx series is the logical
choice. The EIR102 series offers the most flexible port options in a high-feature, DIN rail design.

EIS-RACK-16
supply or have the option to be mounted in a 19 inch rack chassis. The rack
system holds up to 16 of the EIS products and includes one power supply that
will provide power to each of the EIS models via the backplane. A second power
supply for the rack system (model EIS-RACK-PS) can be purchased. Use of two
power supplies provides a load-sharing service that will add redundancy to your
system. If one power supply goes down, the other takes over immediately.

ADAM-6542/W13

Conquer long distances and noisy environments with this


industrial grade Ethernet copper to fiber converter
Model ADAM-6541 is an industrial grade converter, designed
to transparently convert copper Ethernet signals into fiber
optic signals. This provides wide bandwidth, surge and spike
protection, and long-distance transmission capability. The unit
auto-detects transmission speed. Both the copper and fiber
ports have memory buffers. It operates on 10 to 30 VDC.
Flexible mounting via DIN rail, flat panel, or it can piggy-back
on other ADAM modules.
Single-strand media converters reduces cabling costs
Are you faced with a single operating fiber cable and the need
to duplex over it? This pair of media converters can be the
answer. A converter on each end of the fiber takes the Ethernet
signal from copper to fiber and from fiber back to copper, but
with each end transmitting single-mode on a slightly different
frequency. The opposite end receives only on that frequency.
So the two signals pass both ways at once through the single
strand without interference. RFI/EMI resistance and 12.4 miles
(20 km) range of fiber. Proper communication requires
purchase of a pair of these units one Model
ADAM-6542/W13 and one Model ADAM-6542/W15.

Great for applications requiring a fiber port or


extended temperature range
Features

Wide range power input via terminal blocks, 10 to 30 VDC

100-POE4

The 100 series recently introduced industrial hardened, PoE splitters. These units can
power products that would otherwise require a dedicated power drop deployed with only
a Cat5 cable. A PoE sourcing device (such as N-TRONs 100-POE-4 Midspan or 105TX-POE
end span) provides PoE via a Cat5 cable and, at the other end, a 100-POE-SPL splits the
power and Ethernet power a legacy non-PoE device. This is ideal an solution where it is
difficult or expensive to run power, or for temporary installations

The N-TRON 500 series, with the -A option, is well suited for connecting Ethernet equipped industrial control applications
and comes with advanced Ethernet communication management features, like VLAN, IGMP Snooping, Port Trunking, QoS,
and Mirroring. IGMP and query auto detect modes are enabled by default, and key enhancements include multiple router
support as well as dynamic router discovery and master/slave redundancy for query detection. Key to the Advanced
Models is the built-in management features and N-View OPC Server Software.

Features

Extended operating temperature ranges allow these switches to operate in extreme environments
Rugged metal enclosures provide Extended Shock, Noise and Vibration specifications for use in
industrial, marine, utility, and military applications
High MTBF (1 to 2 Million Hours) ensures reliability and durability
Rugged industrial DIN-rail and rack mount enclosures
Full-wire Speed Communications Using Store and Forward Architecture
Redundant power inputs 10-30 VDC for added reliability
RJ-45 ports auto-negotiate Speed, Duplex, and MDIX for ease of use
Hardened ESD over-voltage port protection diodes on all I/O ports for durability
All TX ports support UTP and STP cabling for wider adaptation
Full three year warranty
Advanced Management Features
Ease of setup means IGMP snooping and query auto-detect modes enabled by default. Along with enhancements like dynamic
router discovery and master/slave redundancy for query detection, means seamless formation of IGMP groups across multiple
switches. These features will reduce or eliminate additional configuration requirements typically required with other vendors
switches.
N-View OPC Server Software
The N-View software will work with industry standard OPC client software and most popular HMI packages to provide
complete remote network traffic and status monitoring. The software can be used to provide meaningful alias names to all
ports and help identify the location of the switches and equipment connected to the ports.
The software can be configured to report the status, traffic and error conditions of the network. HMI software packages can use
this information in alarming and trending functions.

Common Industrial Protocol (CIP) Messaging


EtherNet/IP, better known as Common
Industrial Protocol (CIP), was designed to
eliminate the need for vendor specific device
software and provide consistent device access,
management and monitoring in process control
and industrial automation applications. CIP tags,
sample projects, and diagnostic faceplates for
FactoryTalk View ME software (requires
RSLogix 5000 version 17 and higher) allow
quick setup and configuration in RSLogix 5000
environments. With CIP messaging, N-TRON
switches can deliver information and
configuration access directly to PLCs and HMI's.
Switch status, trending and configuration are
easily viewed from PanelView Plus with 640x480
and higher screen resolutions, or access tagged
data from ladder logic programs.

USB Universal Serial Bus

A convenient and reliable way to combine


your new PC and legacy equipment
USB supports high data rates, plug-and-play connections, noise
immunity, and hot swappability providing an easy
connection to a wide variety of multimedia and network USB
devices.

B&B Electronics has your answer - converters, adapters, cards,


hubs, surge protectors, boosters and isolators that connect your
USB PC to your legacy equipment so you can use both to your
greatest advantage.

Cons
5 meters maximum distance
Not always isolated
Not often available on industrial/commercial devices
Lack of locking connectors

Hubs

Universal Serial Bus is a serial protocol and physical layer link.


Data is transmitted differentially on one pair of wires,
providing relatively good noise immunity. Another pair carries
DC power to downstream devices, allowing many low power
devices to be bus powered.

Pros
Plug-and-play connectivity
Hot swapping
High data rates
Noise immunity
Available on most newer PCs

Network-enabled USB hub


Access and monitor USB peripheral devices over TCP/IP network

Works with existing POS or other application software


Excellent in virtualized environments

AnywhereUSB series are plug & play, network-enabled USB hubs. These remote networking solutions use Digi's USB over IP and COM
port redirector technologies to connect USB and serial devices anywhere on a wired or wireless LAN. No need for locally-attached host
PCs. Deploy where PCs are not practical (kiosks, ATMs, restaurant kitchens, manufacturing lines) or other hostile, non-secure, or
limited-space areas.
AnywhereUSB hubs are compatible with bulk or interrupt type USB devices (bar-code scanners, printers, fingerprint scanners, mice,
pole displays, card readers, flash drives, security keys, and more). An excellent solution for networked USB or serial devices in
VMware and Microsoft virtualized environments.
Software drivers are loaded onto a host PC or server, enabling remote devices to communicate with the host, without changing existing
application software. Peripheral devices can be centrally managed and monitored from a remote server or PC via an IP address.

As wireless network equipment emerges, interest and demand in


using wireless in industrial environments has surged. Yet,
understanding the technical aspects of various wireless technologies
and standards is essential in choosing suitable equipment for your
application. Selecting the right equipment will lead to a successfully
installed, well-designed, reliable and efficient communication system.
Refer to page 81 for slection guide.

Faster

In the past, it has not always been possible, practical, or cost effective
to run network cables to every device, to a sensor several miles away,
or to a roving unit on the factory floor. Todays wireless technologies
eliminate those physical and costly barriers, opening a new world of
remote communication solutions. Reliable, on-demand communication
with control and monitoring down to an individual embedded
machine-level sensor is now possible with wireless networking!

range applications. Both indoor and outdoor versions are offered. The product portfolio includes Serial Radio Modems and
I/O modules. Zlinx Manager User Interface makes it extremely easy to configure these wireless devices.
Zlinx indoor products are DIN rail mountable making them suitable for industrial installations. Radio modems offer Modbus
connectivity to a Modbus RTU master such as a PLC/SCADA system. Indoor I/Os are offered in base and expandable
modular configuration.

Indoor and outdoor Zlinx modules of same frequency are inter-compatible. Accessories include optional high gain Yagi and
Omni antennas, cables, connectors, lightning arrestors and power supplies.

Follow these steps to select the best Zlinx products


for your application:
Step - Select Radio Frequency:
1
Line-of-Sight is critical for wireless communications. Radio Frequency signals attenuate with distance. Factors
such as weather, obstructions, humidity, etc. can affect range. 900 MHz signals reach farther distances
compared to 2.4 GHz radio signals. The tables below offer guidance in selecting the radio frequency based on
your inter-distance between the radios and the environment.
Note that while high gain antennas increase the distance, there are also signal losses across antenna cables
and connectors.

Step Do You Have More I/O Points?


4
Indoor versions of Zlinx I/Os are expandable. If your I/O count is more than available in any base I/O
modules (Model: ZZxD-Nx-xR), you can add up to 6 expansion modules to the base module. See page 82
for I/O expansion module options.

Step Choose Wireless Accessories:


5
Standard supplied Omni antennas would cover a limited distance based on the environmental factors. Where
more distance needs to be covered, High Gain Omni or Yagi antennas may be necessary. To use optional high
gain antennas or to extend the supplied antenna to an elevated location, antenna cables, connectors may be
necessary. If the location is lightning prone, lightning arrestors may be necessary.

Monitor and adjust water levels, temperature, PH, and more

Challenge
Water treatment is one of the worlds largest growing markets. As the US population increases, new water wells are vital. Chemical
injection points are constantly added to safe-guard existing water systems and monitor for dangerous chemicals. At B&B Electronics, we
recognize the value of this natural resource and developed the Zlinx product line and related application kits to help maximize ROI
and efficiency of water wells and injection points.
Solution Zlinx Wireless I/O - from B&B Electronics
With B&B Electronics Zlinx wireless I/O products, manual well monitoring can be turned into a highly efficient automated system to
monitor and control pH, ORP, conductivity, temperature, water levels, flow, and more. Technicians no longer make time-consuming field
calls to remote wells or injection points. These expandable products can use a cellular gateway to transmit data by cell phone or internet
when the system is in trouble. So where did B&B Electronics turn to for product design guidance? Apart from customer feedback and
needs, we asked one of our wireless engineers, who lives in the Arizona desert and designed a Zlinx system for his neighborhood water
supply. An interesting white paper describing the application in detail, Wireless Well System A Simple Solution for a Tough Problem,
is available at www.bb-elec.com/WirelessWellKit

Class 1 Div2 Fuel Tank Gauging -

Safe, remote, accurate monitoring of petroleum inventories

Challenge
As world fuel consumption increases, oil and gas companies are trying to make the supply chain as efficient as possible. One of the simplest
applications to automate is tank gauging practices at fuel terminals. In many cases, technicians still gauge tank levels manually for inventory
purposes. Gauging entails numerous safety regulations, with equipment meeting Class 1 Division 2 approvals and valuable time!
Solution Zlinx Wireless Radio Modems - from B&B Electronics
The good news is that Zlinx radio modems, designed and manufactured by B&B Electronics, are Class 1 Division 2 approved. This wireless
technology helps solve outdated tank gauging problems. With Zlinx radio modems, a technician can monitor multiple tanks at a glance from
the office, and use his time for more productive tasks.

R.F. Antenna and Cable Selection


When designing an antenna system there are several items to
consider. Factors that affect the performance of the antennas
are highlighted below. An RF communications system should
be designed such that more than the absolute minimum signal

level arrives at the receiver. This will allow some link margin
in situations where conditions change and the environment
degrades the signal.

Radio Receive Sensitivity. Receive sensitivity is basically the


ability to detect and decode a specific radio frequency.
Typically this is measured in dBm - the lower the better.
Typical Zlinx products are approximately -114dBm.

Cable Type. Selecting the incorrect cable could cause


significant signal loss. A rule of thumb is for every 3db of loss,
your system will lose one half the output power emitted from
the radio. Visit our antenna selection tech paper a helpful
selection guide and more information:
www.bb-elec.com/techpapers.

Transmit/Receive Distance. Keep in mind that if you have lots


of transmit power but poor receive sensitivity, bidirectional
communication may be a problem. The type of cable and
antenna used will affect the receive sensitivity and RF output
power.

Obstacles. Obstacles are always a problem. General rule: Try


to avoid them. When placing an antenna, keep in mind that
trees grow, new buildings are constructed. Plan for future
obstructions.

Antenna Selection
The same rule applies for the gain of an antenna: for every 3db
of gain, you will double the effective radiated power out of the
respective antenna. A gain of 8.1db using a 100wm radio is
approximately 270mw of output power. (Keep in mind we
have not included any cable or connector losses.)

Peer to Peer vs. Peer to Multi-Peer


When selecting an antenna also keep in mind the type of
system architecture. Simple systems, such as peer-to-peer, can
be easily designed using Yagi antennas on both ends. A multipeer system, such as a Modbus master to several slave devices,

needs a little more thought. When designing a multi-peer


system the master needs to communicate to all the respective
slave devices. This is typically accomplished by designing an
omni-directional antenna on the master and Yagi antennas
pointing at the master antenna.

WiFi/802.11

More is Not Better


Keeping the above in mind, one of the most important
components in an antenna system is the transmission cable.
The wrong type, wrong impedance, wrong length, etc., and
your system could go south quick. When selecting RF coax
type cable keep cable runs as short as possible. Long cable runs
will cause additional signal loss.

Antennas

Cable Impedance. Its important to select a cable that matches


the radios impedance. A mismatch will cause the radio link to
become inefficient or may cause damage to the radio.

Modular I/O

Antenna Type. If at all possible your systems antennas should


be able to see each other. This is not always possible so its
critical to select the proper antenna components to keep signal
loss or decrease receive sensitivity. If obstacles are present, you
may consider a higher gain antenna.

Serial Radio
Modems

Radio Output Power. RF power is rated in watts or milliwatts. Typical B&B Electronics Zlinx products are rated in
1mw, 10mw, 100mw, 500mw and 1watt, outputs. As RF power
increases so will the current demand on the power supplying
your system.

The terrain can dramatically affect the attenuation rate of a signal.


Certain assumptions were made in calculating these ranges: A 0.4 dB loss was factored in for each connector. Two connectors are used to attach an
RF cable. Cables are one continuous run. Antenna elevation was not factored in beyond the definition of the terrain. Weather was not factored in.

N-TRONs wireless devices also support 802.11a/b/g compatibility for existing wireless networks. The 702M12-Ws IP67 rated
enclosure with M12 connectors provides complete protection against dust, water jets, and temporary immersion in water making it
ideal for outdoor, wash down, or extremely dusty environments. Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) technology enables the 702-W or
702M12-W to receive power throught Cat5e cable from PoE sourcing devices. Network deployments are easier using wireless and
PoE technology because only one Cat5e cable is required. Radios are UL listed for use in Class1, Division 2 hazardous locations.

Modular I/O

N-TRONs 702-W and 702M12-W Industrial Wireless Ethernet Radios offer the highest throughput of any industrial wireless device
currently available. IEEE 802.11n support allows these radios to utilize three antennas and Multiple In, Multiple Out (MIMO)

The XPress Ethernet Bridge replaces costly wiring with a solution that wirelessly connects industrial PLCs, electronic (LED) signs,
Wi-Fi APs, Pan/Tilt/Zoom security cameras, VoIP phones, Internet kiosks and more. Up to 15 mile range (line-of-sight with high
gain antenna) and ability to transmit through up to 10 standard walls, the XEB uses the added range and capabilities of the 900
MHz band to communicate where Wi-Fi and other wireless data products fall short. The easy-to-use, long-range XEB features a
1.5 Mbps RF data rate.
The XPress Ethernet Bridge is available either as a point-to-point matched pair (two modems) or a multipoint transceiver. Pointto-point is ideal for applications needing to wirelessly connect only two nodes. If the application requires (or, in the future, may
require) connecting more than two nodes, the multipoint model is an excellent option. Each multipoint model has a DIP switch
for easy configuration as an access point (base radio) or subscriber unit (remote radio). Includes power supply and PoE injector.
* Proprietary Power-over-Ethernet (not IEEE 802.3AF) - simply combines 12 VDC power supply and data lines onto same cable.

Nothing makes selecting a product more difficult than navigating through datasheets filled with acronyms. Unlike most
technophiles, I absolutely hate acronyms. All technologies have their fair share of random letters grouped together that mean
something to somebody. But it appears that the engineers in charge of cellular technology got in line twice when the letters were
being handed out. And they dont even sound cool at least you can pronounce ASCII

Cellular Technology The Alphabet Soup Explained

WiFi/802.11

The most confusion comes when discussing the type of cellular network. When you ask
somebody this question, they will usually answer with the company they send the bill to.
But, the answer is actually GSM or CDMA.

Ethernet
Bridges

GSM stands for Global System for Mobile Communications. It is the most
popular standard for cell phone networks in the world. This is the standard that
AT&T uses in the U.S. It is also very popular with most international carriers.
Besides the technical difference that I will not go into, GSM networks require a
SIM card. SIM stands for Subscriber Identity Module. As the name implies, this
card identifies your device on the network.

Cellular
Routers

CDMA is short for Code Division Multiple Access. This system is mainly used
in the U.S. CDMA systems do not use a SIM card. Instead, your device needs to be
programmed. The CDMA network is used by Sprint and Verizon in the U.S.
Now for the Gs GSM and CDMA are both 2G networks. The G stands for
Generation. The first generation was called AMPS. It was an analog network used way
back in the 80s. Second generation GSM and CDMA networks are digital and can handle
voice and data - data being what we care about. 2G networks are relatively slow. Third
Generation, or 3G networks are faster and can deliver data at speeds comparable to your home
DSL router or better.
There are several types of 3G networks.
EV-DO: This stands for Evolution-Data Optimized. It is associated with CDMA networks and can deliver data at speeds
ranging from 144 Kbps to 2 Mbps.
UMTS and HSDPA: UMTS stands for Universal Mobile Telecommunications System. HSDPA stands for High-Speed Downlink
Packet Access. These are upgrades to GSM networks, and like EV-DO, they provide high speed data throughput. Without
getting technical, the only difference between the two is that HSDPA is faster than UMTS and is sometimes called 3.5G. In the
U.S., AT&T offers both UMTS and HSDPA.
In between 3G and 2G are the 2.5G networks. These are generally good enough for most industrial and
commercial applications. A variation of the CDMA standard is 1xRTT, or 1 times Radio Transmission
Technology. It delivers speeds between 30 Kbps and 90 Kbps. On the GSM side are GPRS and EDGE.
GPRS stands for General Packet Radio Service. EDGE is short for Enhanced Data Rates for GSM Evolution.
They also deliver between 30 and 90 Kbps data rates.

Analog and Digital Remote I/O


Data Acquisition Systems, by definition are designed to gather
and store data. However, this has led many plant managers
and engineers to spend substantial money on systems that do
just that - gather data - but are good for little else. In reality,
data acquisition is not the purpose of DAQ systems - obtaining
Mission Critical Information (MCI), is. Industrial plants,
manufacturers, and producers do not need to simply know the

temperature, pressure, or production volume of any given


piece of equipment in their plant; they need to know what that
data means and how it relates to their operations. Data
acquisition modules from B&B Electronics handle a broad
range of analog and digital remote I/O and deliver that data
over serial, Ethernet, USB or wireless connections. Compact,
low cost modules fit a variety of applications to monitor
sensors and control processes or equipment.

Remote I/O

Data Acquisition

Zlinx Wireless and Wired I/O from


B&B Electronics feature plug-and-play modules
combined with Modbus RTU remote analog and discrete
I/O. Each system consists of a wireless or wired base
unit and expansion modules with a wide variety of
digital and analog I/O. Wireless Base Modules are
available in short, medium, and long range versions.

Digital I/O Sometimes referred to as discrete I/O, these input and


output types are much easier for a micro-processor-based DAQ
system to use since they are already a binary signal. Digital I/O
uses voltage level changes from high to low (or vice versa).

Sinking & Sourcing: When choosing a Digital I/O module, it is
important to have an understanding of these terms. A sinking device
provides a path for the current to ground and is not responsible for
powering the device. Terms used to describe sinking devices include
NPN, Open Collector, and Normally High. A sourcing device
provides the power or a positive potential. Sourcing devices push
the current through the load. Terms used to describe sourcing devices
include PNP, Open Emitter, and Normally Low. B&B Electronics
Zlinx modules with NA or NB in model numbers feature
Sourcing digital outputs. Zlinx modules with NC or ND within
model numbers feature Sinking digital outputs.
When selecting digital I/O, know that not all manufacturers define
sinking and sourcing the same way. In general, Sinking/ Sourcing
describes a current signal flow relationship between field
input/output devices in a control system and their power supply.
Sourcing I/O modules supply (or source) current to sinking field
devices. Sinking I/O modules receive (or sink) current from
sourcing field devices. However, always consult your devices
manual to determine required I/O.
Counter inputs might be used to count the rotations of a motor. As
the name implies, successive pulses increment a counter. Using this
information, a frequency or pulse rate can readily be determined.
Counters are characterized by their number of bits. In an X-bit
counter, the maximum number of counts is equal to 2 raised to the X
power. Example: a 16-bit counter can count up to 2 to the 16th power
or 65,536.

The ADAM-5000 series monitors and controls processes


through multi-channel I/O modules. One system consists
of a main (base) unit plus up to 4 or 8 modular
components. Base models come with communications
ports configured either with RS-485 or Ethernet.
Expansion modules contain a wide variety of analog and
digital I/O.

Relays: A relay is a device in which power applied to a coil or input


terminal causes the path between contacts open or close. These
contacts are designed for interrupting and applying power to larger
loads (i.e., integral horsepower motors) and significant resistance
loads (i.e., lighting and heaters). Relays outputs come in several
variations:
Form A Single Pole, Single Throw, Normally Open
Form B Single Pole, Single Throw, Normally Closed
Form C Single Pole, Double Throw, Break-before-make
Analog I/O: Digital computers have replaced analog recording and
display technologies in all but the simplest data acquisition
applications. However, these computers speak only the binary
language of ones and zeroes. Manufacturing processes and natural
phenomena, however, are still analog by their very nature. To be
manipulated by a computer, analog measurements such as pressure,
temperature, or flow rate, must be translated into a digital
equivalent.
Analog I/O
Current - Voltage - Resolution - Temperature
Voltage: Common voltage signals used in the controls industry are
1-5 VDC, 2-10 VDC, 3-15 VDC, 0-5 VDC, 0-10 VDC and 0-15 VDC.
Current: The 4-20 mA signal is the industry standard current signal
for use with analog and digital controllers. A variation of the 4-20
mA signal is 0-20 mA.
Resolution: ADC devices are defined by the resolution, ranging
from 8-bit to 32-bit. Obviously, the higher the resolution, the higher
your rate of accuracy and data integrity. But it also means your costs
will be higher. Because of this, it is essential to calculate exactly what
your sampling rates will really be and balance that within budget.
Further information on data sampling, including how to calculate
your resolution needs, can be found in our paper, The Fine Art of
Analog Signal Sampling.

4-Wire RTD - A 4 wire input provides the most accurate


measurement. Excitation current flows through 2 wires and the
other 2 wires are used to measure the voltage across the RTD. The
wire leads have no influence on the accuracy of the measurement.

RTD: Simply put, an RTD is sensor used to measure temperature by


correlating an elements resistance with temperature. RTD elements
consist of a length of fine wire coiled around a ceramic or glass core.
The wire is made of a pure material with a defined resistance.
Platinum is the most popular and accurate. Copper is also used in
some instances. A Pt100 sensor has a resistance of 100 ohms at 0C
and is by far the most common type of RTD sensor. A Pt1000 has
1000 ohms resistance at 0C. Copper RTDs are usually built at 10
ohms (CU10). Because of this low resistance, measured temperatures
spans must be large to get an adequate signal. Therefore, CU10 RTD
use is limited to devices such as motors or transformers.

Thermocouple: Based on the principle that when two dissimilar


metals are joined, a predictable voltage will be generated that
relates to the difference in temperature between the measuring
junction and the reference junction (connection to the measuring
device). The selection of the optimum thermocouple type (metals
used in their construction) is based on application temperature,
atmosphere, required length of service, accuracy and cost.

Temperature Range
(Continuous)
0 to +800C
0 to +700C
0 to +100C
-185 to +300C

Ethernet

3-Wire RTD - Lead compensation with 3 wires requires 2


conductors attached to one end of the RTD and a single conductor
on the other end. This method requires the 3 lead wires to track
each other in resistance change versus ambient temperature. It is
effective for a total copper lead resistance equal to about 10% of the
RTD value. The error introduced increases proportionally as the
lead wire length increases.

Temperature Range
(Short Term)
-400 to +900C
-180 to +800C
-180 to +1300C

2-Wire RTD - The lowest cost method is to keep the signal


conditioner close enough to the sensor so the copper wire
resistance change does not introduce an excessive error in the
measurement.

Analog Signals
Frequency Analog signals can be characterized by their frequency.
When frequency is important, acquisition speed must be considered.

Software

Level the analog level gives important information,


such as the intensity of a light source, pressure in a
chamber, or temperature in room.

Shape the shape of an analog signal can be as important as the level. By measuring
the shape, the DC value, peak, and slope can be determined. This is of particular
interest when the value changes rapidly. Sounds and vibration are some applications.

Digital Signals
ON

State The state of a digital signal is essentially the level of


the signal [on or off, hi or low]. A common application is
monitoring the condition of a switch [open or closed].
OFF

Rate The rate of a digital signal is determined by measuring how it changes state with respect
to time. A common application is determining how fast a motor shaft spins. Unlike Analog
Frequency, digital rate measures how often a signal occurs and an algorithm in not required.

Ethernet

Serial

The ADAM series modules are compact, versatile sensor-tocomputer interface units designed specifically for reliable
operation in harsh environments. Their built-in microprocessors, encased in rugged industrial grade plastic, independently
provide intelligent signal conditioning, analog I/O and digital
I/O via RS-485 serial or Ethernet communications.
Remotely programmable input ranges
The ADAM series modules stand out because of their ability to
accommodate multiple types and ranges of input. The type and
range can be remotely selected by issuing commands from a
host computer. One type of module satisfies many different
tasks, which greatly simplifies design and maintenance. A
single kind of module can handle the measurement needs of a
whole plant. Since all the modules are remotely configured by
the host computer, physical adjustments are unnecessary.

Watchdog timer inside


A watchdog timer supervisory function will automatically reset
the ADAM series modules if required, which reduces the need
for maintenance.
Modular industrial design
The ADAM series modules offer flexible mounting options,
including DIN rail mounting, panel mounting or piggybacking.
Signal connections are made through plug-in screw terminal
blocks, ensuring simple installation, modification and
maintenance.
Ready for the industrial environment
The ADAM series modules accept any unregulated power
source between 10 and 30 VDC. They are protected from
accidental power supply reversals and can be safely connected
or disconnected without disturbing a running network.

Powerful Features: Peer to Peer


and Graphic Conditional Logic (GCL)
What is Peer to Peer?
Peer to peer enabled modules actively update input channel status to specific output channels. Users can define the mapping
between input and output channels then the input value will be transferred to the output channel actively.

Remote I/O

ADAM 6000 Ethernet I/O Modules

What Benefits do Peer to Peer Modules Provide?


No Controller Required.
The Controller can be removed since the data will automatically transfer simplifying the data transfer process and saving hardware
cost.

Ethernet

Simple and Flexible Wiring


If the PLC and sensors are far apart, the remote I/O modules located near the sensors have to communicate through complex often
proprietary PLC communication networks and cabling. Peer to peer modules can replace limited and closed networks with no
limitations since they leverage open and flexible Ethernet networks and infrastructure. With the built-in web server, data can be
viewed anytime, anywhere via the internet.

Serial

No Additional Programming Required


To use the Peer to Peer feature the only thing required is to configure the settings through the free, easy-to-use ADAM.NET utility.
No additional programming is needed saving development time.

Easy Graphical configuration environment, no additional programming is needed
Active and real time I/O messaging and event notification to address trends and issues as they occur
Combine different logic rules to fulfill more complex applications without a separate controller
Pre-built mathematic function in analog input modules including scaling to convert to real world unit values

Software

What is GCL?
GCL (Graphics Condition Logic) give Ethernet I/O modules control ability. Up to 16 logic rules can be defined and downloaded to
the module though the free ADAM.NET utility. The Ethernet module will execute the logic rules automatically just like a
standalone controller. In the configuration environment there are 4 stages of on logic rule: Input, Logic, Execution and Output.

Field Application Story:


GCL Typical Application: Water Tank Control
Two ADAM-6000 modules are the only hardware used for this automation
application - no other controller or computer required. ADAM-6017 module is
located on the rooftop, connecting to the water level sensor in the tower.
ADAM-6050 module is located in the basement, controlling the water pump.
The two ADAM modules are connected across the buildings Ethernet
network - no extra wiring is needed. GCL is running on the ADAM-6017
module, continuously comparing the water level with a specific limit value.
If the water level is less than the limit value, it will trigger the ADAM-6050
modules D/O channel to start the pump and fill water tank. No need to write
any program. It takes less than 5 minutes to complete the configuration using
the ADAM.NET Utility.

Economically Priced!
Energy Star Certified!

Advantechs New Atom-based Fanless Box PC series, UNO-2173A and UNO-2173AF, are
equipped with Intel Atom 1.6 GHz CPUs, Gigabit Ethernet ports, rich I/O, and 1 x Mini
PCIe socket. They also feature WLAN, 3G expansion and compatibility with Windows 7 and
Moblin (Mobile Linux distributed by Intel). Both products have Energy Star certification,
IP40 anti-dust ingress protection and wide operating temperatures (-20 ~ 70 C) for high
performance and high versatility with low power consumption. The UNO-2173A and UNO2173AF are economic new computing platforms for manufacturing executing systems,
facility automation, in-vehicle, and industrial thin client applications.

Fanless Design

Built-to-Order!

The UNO-series are robust computers with


no rotating parts, like CPU fans, system fans,
power supply fans or HDDs. This
significantly increases reliability, extends
MTTR, and drastically reduces maintenance
efforts. No worries about CPU cooler or
HDD failures, even in dusty environments.

Variations on pre-configured models are available. Call for details!

Unlike general box PC designs where cables


are used for wiring between connectors and
CPU boards, UNO-series connectors are
soldered directly on the PCB - no internal
cabling inside the chassis. This makes them
much more reliable in harsh environments.

Protect data signals against vibration, contaminants, electromagnetic interference (EMI), wide temperature ranges and
chemicals. The screw-on connectors lock and seal cables in
place. Choose a pre-built cord set, or build your own with the
field attachable connectors. Also make connections in and out
of the industrial cabinet easy with a pass-through receptacle.
For OEM applications use the direct PCB mount receptacles for
sealed and solid connections.

Duplex Fiber Optic Couplers and Adapters

Duplex Fiber optic couplers and adapters are used to connect two fiber assemblies together (2 fibers each). When connecting like
fiber assemblies together these are referred to as couplers and when connecting two unlike fiber assemblies together these are
called adapters. Note that these are offered in Multi-mode and Single-mode options. Single-mode parts will work with both
Multi-mode and Single-mode fiber, but Multi-mode versions will only work with Multi-mode fiber.

Fiber Optic Cable Tester

Test fiber cable on the roll or installed


It is important to check fiber optic cables for continuity both on
the roll and after installation. This visible LED pulsing light
source connects to one end of a fiber optic cable and is bright
enough to be easily seen at the other end, yet wont hurt your
eyes. Signal can be set for either steady or unique flashing
mode, which makes tracing cables easier in a crowded cabinet.
Easily connects to most 2.5 mm ferrule F-O couplers- ST, SC,
RSD, and FSD. Uses one 9 V battery (included).
Compact size: 10.2 x 6.1 x 2.5 cm (4.0 x 2.4 x 1.0 in).

LED Mini Tester

Know which RS-232 data lines are active


This RS-232 mini tester is designed to connect in series with any
RS-232 interface. Bright red or green LED signals clearly show
which lines are active. The LEDs color indicates negative or
positive voltage (red meaning negative, green meaning positive).

Mini testers are used to check the interface for failures and to
help identify the equipment that has failed. The tester may be
left in the line permanently. It is transparent to data transfer.
Seven LEDs indicate the status of the following lines: TD, RD,
RTS, CTS, DSR, DTR, and CD. Model 9PMTT has male and
female DB9 connectors.
