RS485 Repeater
RS485 Repeater
The RS-485 Repeater/Splitter provides a means of creating electrically separate RS-485 bus segments. The unit provides bi-directional half-duplex communication between a master RS-485 port and up to five repeater ports.
The unit has three power supply inputs: from the Master (K2 & K3), from an external supply (K5 & K9), and from the Isolated RS-485 port (K8). The repeater ports 1-4 may be electrically isolated from the Master power circuit (switch SW1). The ISO Repeater port may be electrically isolated from Repeaters 1-4 and the Master channel. Alternatively, Repeaters 1-4 and/or ISO Repeater may be driven from the same power supply as the master power circuit.
The RS-485 Repeater/Splitter may be installed inside a Pertronic fire alarm control panel, or it may be installed in a stand-alone enclosure.
