13 Accessory
The following tools are available from Deutschmann Automation.
13.1
Adapter RS232
In an application the adapter RS232 offers the possibility to replace an existing driver MAX 232
(only in DIL-16-housing) by this adapter. This board allows the use of the IC according to chapter
3.4 on page 14. Please note that with it the DeviceNet does not offer a connection conforming to
the standards. With a plug adapter, however, at least the operation of DeviceNet is possible.
The hardware is only meant for development purposes. It offers the possibility to make an
existing application capable for bus connection in no time and to test the IC's utilizability and
functionality.
13.2
Adapter RS485
From the functionality's point of view the RS485 adapter is the same as the RS232 adapter. It
offers the possibility to replace a module LS 176 (only in DIL-8-housing) by the IC.
There are the same restrictions as for the RS232 adapter.
