Model 485LPCOR
Port-Powered RS-485 Converter
The 485LPCOR is a port-powered two-channel RS-232 to RS-485 converter. It converts the TD and RD RS-232 lines to
balanced half-duplex RS-485 signals. The unit is powered from the RS-232 data and handshake lines whether the lines
are high or low. An external power supply can be connected to two pins on the RS-485 connector if no handshake lines
are available. The 485LPCOR has a DB-25 female connector on the RS-232 side and a DB-25 male connector on the
RS-485 side.
Robert M. Paratore, Director of Engineering RS-232 Side:
Connector: DB-25 Female
Signals:
Passes through pins 2 (TD) and 3 (RD).
Pins 4 (RTS) and 5 (CTS) are tied together.
Pins 20 (DTR), 6 (DSR), and 8 (CD)
are tied together.
RS-485 Side:
Connector: DB-25 Male
Signals:
Half-duplex two-wire operation only.
Automatic control circuit enables driver only
when transmitting.
Receiver is disabled when transmitting to prevent echo back
to RS-232 device.
Can transmit up to 4000 feet at 115.2k baud.
Power Requirements
No external power required if two RS-232 output handshake lines are available.
External 12VDC can be applied to pins on the RS-485 side between pins 25 (+) and 12 (GND) if handshake lines are
not available.
35mA current draw maximum under normal operation when externally powered.
NOTE: When using an external supply, the supply should be connected only to specifically labeled power
inputs (power jack, terminal block, etc.). Connecting an external power supply to the handshake lines may
damage the unit. Contact technical support for more information on connecting an external power supply to
the handshake lines.
Dimensions:
2.20 x 2.16 x 0.64 in ( 5.59 x 5.49 x 1.63 cm)
Connections and Operation
To DB-25 RS-232 DTE device:
To DB-25 RS-232 DCE device: To RS-485 device or network:
Can use 25-pin straight through cable. Can use 25-pin cable that crosses pins 2 & 3.
