Product Information
The AXB-232++ RS-232/422/485 Interface is an AXlink bus controller that provides remote
control for devices that require a variety of control protocols. The AXB-232++ extends RS-232,
RS-422, or RS-485 control to remote sources over the 4-wire AXlink data/power bus.
Onboard processing and memory allows the controller to take on complex tasks by itself, reducing
the processing burden for the Axcess control system. For example, the control system can use
simplified commands for generic video switcher or code control, a modular driver program in the
AXB-232++ can process control for specific makes and models.
