LAN to RS-485 APPLICATION

The LAN to RS-485 application is required when connecting fuel pumps and other serial devices to
home base controller that uses TCP/IP communication. In this configuration, the RS-485 Two-Port
module (P/N 819223460) is installed within the CommVerter.

If several CommVerter units are to be connected to the FCC, a Hub must be added to the network in
order to support several connections.

Figure 2-7. CommVerter – LAN to RS-485 Application

The CommVerter diverts the LAN communication to the relevant RS-485/422 device. The relevant
module is addressed with its IP address, and a unique port is configured during the device setup.
Interfaces using this mode of communication and conversion include Wayne Dart, Midco, L&T,
Tatsuno, Aplab, and more.

The following table provides the configuration of the RS-485 piggy-back board (Commverter
module) per type of pump.
