Introduction The TCC-120 and TCC-120I are RS-422/485 isolated repeaters, and the TCC-120I comes with 2 kV isolation protection. The following topics are covered in this chapter: Overview Introduction Built-in RS-485 ADDC Intelligence Isolation Reverse Power Protection ...
RS-422 or RS-485 interface for data transmission. In some cases however, it is necessary to extend the transmission distance between RS-422/485 devices. This is where the TCC-120/120I RS-422/485 repeaters come in. Simply wire the power terminal block, wire the two signal terminal blocks, set the DIP switches, and you’re ready to go.
PWR, Tx, Rx LEDs • Operating temperature from -20 to 60°C • 2 kV isolation (for the TCC-120I) Package Checklist Before installing the TCC-120/120I, verify that the package contains the following items: Standard Accessories: • TCC-120 or TCC-120I • DIN-rail mounting kit •...
LED Indicators The TCC-120/120I’s top panel contains three LED indicators, as described in the table below: LED Name LED Function Red indicates the power is on. Data is entering through the top-end port and Orange exiting through the bottom-end port.
Installation This chapter includes information about how to install the TCC-120/120I. Five steps are required to install the TCC-120/120I: STEP 1: Set the terminator DIP Switches • STEP 2: Attach the Power Supply • STEP 3: Wire the RS-422/485 Terminal Blocks •...
STEP 1: Set the DIP Switches The DIP switches on the TCC-120/120I are used to set the signal transmission mode and to enable or disable the termination resistor. You can configure for either 2-wire (RS-485) or 4-wire (RS-422/485) transmission modes. Also note that your program and serial port should be set to match the repeater’s settings.

The newly implemented DIP-2 (S3 and S4) switches are used to configure the pull high/low resistors for different applications. Pull High/Low Resistor DIP-2 SW1 DIP-2 SW2 150k 1k (default) NOTE We recommend setting the pull high/low resistor to 1k (ON/ON) when termination is enabled.
NOTE The TCC-120/120I provide reverse power protection. The products will automatically detect which power wire is negative, and which is positive. STEP 3: Wire the Terminal Block There are two wiring options available for connecting to the TCC-120/120I’s RS-422/485 terminal block. 2-wire When using the 2-wire (for...
TCC-120/120I’s two RS-422/485 ports. STEP 5: Placement In addition to placing the TCC-120/120I on a desktop or other horizontal surface, you may also make use of the DIN-rail or wall mount options, as illustrated here.
