COM128 Installation and Operation Manual Schneider Electric 1 FEA TURES • Connects one RS-232 line to four RS-485 buses. • Automatic baud rate detection supporting data rates of 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, and 19200 baud. • DTE or DCE operation allows connection to computers or modems without the need for null modem adapters.
COM128 Installation and Operation Manual Schneider Electric 2 1 INTRODUCTION The COM128 is used to interface a single RS-232 communica- tions line to up to four RS-485 communications buses. The RS-485 standard restricts each RS-485 bus to supporting 32 or fewer devices connected to it.
COM128 Installation and Operation Manual Schneider Electric 3 2 PHYSICAL FEA TURES 2.1 RS-232 PANEL The RS-232 panel of the COM128 is illustrated in Figure 2.1.1. DC SUPPLY CONNECTORS These connections allow the COM128 to be powered from a wide range of DC voltage sources, including the supplied adapter.
COM128 Installation and Operation Manual Schneider Electric 4 3 CONFIGURA TION 3.1 CONFIGURATION SWITCHES These six switches are used to configure the COM128 for the desired operation (see Figure 3.1.1). A switch is ON when it is in the UP position. The following is a description of each mode of operation.

COM128 Installation and Operation Manual Schneider Electric 6 3.2.4 RS-485 DATA BUFFERING WITH TRANSMISSION DELAY AFTER RTS ASSERTION APPLICATION This mode is very similar to the RTS / CTS mode. The COM128 buffers data from the RS-485 ports, asserts its RTS output then transmits data out of the DTE port after a programmable time delay.
COM128 Installation and Operation Manual Schneider Electric 7 4.2.2 DIRECT CONNECTION TO A COMPUTER PORT SELECTION An IBM-compatible PC acts as a DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) RS-232 device. Therefore, the computer’s RS-232 port should be connected to the DCE port on the COM128.
COM128 Installation and Operation Manual Schneider Electric 8 4.2.3 CONNECTION TO A MODEM PORT SELECTION A telephone or radio modem typically acts as a DCE RS-232 device. Therefore, the modem’s RS-232 port should be connected to the COM128’s DTE RS-232 port.
