General Information Functional Description The interface series TW-100D... and TW-115B isolates a PC in the safe area electrically from a keyboard, a mouse or other PS/2 or RS232/RS485-devices in the Ex area. This separation concerns the signal lines as well as the power lines.
TW-100D, TW-100DB, TW-100Dm, TW-100DBm, TW-115B - Technical Documentation Start of Operation Observe the safety advices! • Switch off the PC. • Connect the cable from TW-1... with the PC (safe area) • Connect the EEx i keyboard and EEx i mouse or other approved intrinsically safe devices with the terminals on the EEx i side of TW-1...

In this case switch scanner and keyboard in parallel over an external keyboard wedge (KS-20). • RS-232 and RS-485 data may only be sent from the Ex-protected base station to the PC, not in the opposite direction. Transmission of RS-XXX data from the PC to the terminals of the Ex approved base station are not allowed and may additionally destroy components.
Modifications and conversions to the units are not permissible and will cause the Ex protection and the guarantee to become void. E.L.B. Ex-Geräte Bachmann GmbH is not liable for any subsequent damage. The technical data specified for the hazardous area comply with the values certified in the European EEx approval.

RS-232/485 data from the PC to the scanner are not possible and prohibited. The keyboard terminal of the PC supplies both TW-100D and the scanner. RS-232 data can be translated internally to RS-485 levels. The non- Ex side is equipped with Combicon plugs and screw terminals, but no leads.
