Introduction
Overview
The Sealevel Systems ULTRA 485 provides the PC with an additional
RS-422/485 serial port for terminals, PLC communication, laboratory
instrumentation, etc.
The unique feature of the ULTRA 485 is the ability to be RS-485 compatible
without the need for special software or drivers. This is especially useful in
Windows, Windows NT, and OS/2 environments where the lower level I/O
control is abstracted from the application program. Which means that the user
can effectively use the ULTRA 485 in an RS-485 application with existing (i.e.
standard RS-232) software drivers.
