DSI485A
DSI485A is an isolated communication module for providing the 2- or
4-wired RS-485-communication link between MAWS and another
piece of equipment with a similar interface. The DSI485A module is
used for example for connecting displays and terminals to MAWS
when the distance is longer than 15 meters. The maximum distance for
DSI485A is approx. 1500 meters at full speed. The power
consumption is from 10 to 25 mA when communicating and 1 mA at
standby.
The DSI485A module must be configured before using it so that it
works as desired. The Lizard Setup Software is used for this purpose.
DSI486
DSI486 is a dual isolated communication module, which can be used
in various modes, RS-232, RS-485, or SDI-12. Communication mode
is selected by the correct wiring of the I/O pins and with the correct
jumper settings on the board. The DSI486 module is used e.g. for
connecting displays and terminals to MAWS when the distance is
longer than 15 meters. The maximum distance for DSI486 is
approximately 1500 meters at full speed.
The RS-485/422 channels A and B are galvanically isolated from the
host board's electronics. The +5 VDC power supplies of channels A
and B are also isolated from each other with capacitors. Thus, it is
possible to wire these two channels to separate locations.
The RS-232 mode is utilizing channel B. While channel B is used in
the RS-232 mode, it is possible to use channel A as a galvanically
isolated two-wire RS-485 channel. The RS-232 channel is
galvanically connected to the host board's GND potential.
The SDI-12 channel has an own connecting point on the board. It is
not using channel A or B for the communication. SDI-12 is
galvanically connected to the host board's GND potential.
The DSI486 module must be configured before using it so that it
works as desired. The Lizard Setup Software is used for this purpose.
Modem DMX501
The DMX501 communication module is used for providing long
distance fixed line connection between MAWS and another Vaisala
