  • Page 13: Baud Rate Selection

    Baud Rate Selection The Xtreme/104 Opto is capable of baud rates up to 460.8 kbps (4X oscillator) or 115.2 kbps (1X oscillator) depending on whether a shorting block is installed across position G on the JB3 jumper block. Please refer to block JB3.
  • Page 14: Software Installation

    Xtreme/104 Opto adapters are standard multi-port serial adapters that utilize 16C2850 UARTs. In many cases, users have software that will interface directly to the Xtreme/104 Opto adapters. Many operating systems come with handlers to control access to multiple 8250 style UARTs.

RS-232/RS-422/485 Interfaces Electrical Interface Selection The Xtreme/104 Opto adapter provides jumper selectable RS-232 and RS-422/485 electrical interfaces on each port. Jumper blocks JB4, JB5, JB6 and JB7 set the electrical interfaces for the individual ports 1, 2, 3 and 4 respectively.
  • Page 19: Full Duplex Mode

    Place jumpers on positions A and C of jumper blocks JB4, JB5, JB6 and JB7 to run the individual RS-422/485 ports in half duplex mode. In this mode your Xtreme/104 Opto adapter controls the transmitter and receiver circuits. RTS is turned on prior to and during transmission to cause the transmit driver to enable and the receiver to disable.
