Serial (RS-485) communication via interface adapter
9.7.1
Engineering via interface adapters (serial)
As your unit supports "Serial" communication, you can use a suitable interface adapter
for engineering.
The interface adapter is additional hardware that you can obtain from
SEW-EURODRIVE. You can use it to connect your engineering PC with the respective
communication option of the unit.
The following table shows you the different types of interface adapters available, and for
which units they are suitable.
Type of interface
adapter (option)
USB11A
(USB to RS-485)
UWS21B
(RS-232 to RS-485)
UWS11A
(RS-232 to RS-485)
for mounting rail
As the majority of PCs come equipped with USB interfaces instead of RS-232 interfaces,
the following section only focuses on the USB11A interface.
