RS232 communication is intended for direct connection of the measuring transducer to the personal
computer. It is necessary to assure the corresponding connection of individual terminals of the DB9
connector (see a table on the next page).
2.5.3 RS485
RS485 communication is intended for connection of devices to network where several instruments with
RS485 communication are connected to a common communication interface. We recommend the use
of Iskra d.o.o. communication interfaces for best compatibility!
Correct connection of individual terminals of the DB9 connector shall be provided (see a table on the
next page).
2.5.4 Ethernet
Ethernet communication allows for integration of the device into global Ethernet-based networks. The
device supports fast Ethernet (10/100 Mbps). For proper operation, standard IEEE 802.3 compliant
100BASE-T CAT5 Ethernet cable is recommended. The device is supplied with a unique MAC address for
identification. The MAC address is printed on the label, positioned on the upper side of the instrument.
2.5.5 USB
USB communication serves as a fast peer-to-terminal data link. The instrument is detected by host as a
USB 2.0 compatible device. The USB connection is provided through a USB standard Type B connector.
PLEASE NOTE
When (U)MT51x is connected to a PC through USB communication for the first time, a user is
prompted to install a driver. The driver is provided on the CD, enclosed in the original shipment
package, or can be downloaded from the Iskra d.o.o. web page https://www.iskra.eu/en/.
With this driver installed, USB is redirected to a serial port, which should be selected when
using MiQen software.
