## Description

This RS485 to USB converter is electrically protected against static electricity, high voltage spikes and other dangerous voltage spikes which can damage your equipment or data signaling. It is designed around the high performance and very reliable FT232RL processor chip from FTDI, so naturally it is compatible with all verisons of Windows, Mac and Linux. It is a bi-directional, (meaning it communicates in both directions) and reliable RS485 to USB converter that easily lets you connect any RS485 or RS422 device directly to your computer's USB port, efficiently converting USB signals to half-duplex RS485 or full-duplex RS422 and vice versa. After installation of the included drivers the virtual COM port will automatically be created in your computer's Device Manager and can be accessed as if it was a standard built-in COM port. The RS485 / RS422 end is a standard 5-terminal screw header for easy connection of single wires. Automatic send data control is enabled by default so no external flow or handshake control is needed. USB port-powered RS485 to USB converter No external power needed Baud rate: 300bps to 921.600bps, auto tuning Indication lights for Power, RX and TX Output 1: RS485 2 wire half duplex Output 2: RS422 4-wire full duplex Automatic Send Control Typical comm. speed: max 115.2Kbps 3200 FT Typical comm. distance: max 9800 FT at 4800bps Up to 32 nodes in network configuration Surge / static electrical protection up to 2500 Vrms/600W Working temperature: -40 to 85C Size: 63 x 34 x 13mm USB 2.0, compliant with USB 1.1 FCC, RoHS, CE certified Terminal RS485 RS422 1 D+ TX+ 2 D - TX - 3 n/c RX + 4 n/c RX - 5 GND GND

## Questions & Answers

**Q: There is usually a 120 ohm resistor in RS-485 connections. Does this adapter incorporate that 120 ohms internally or do I still need the resistor?**
A: Termination is only required when both length of line and baud rate affect propagation delay. I've used this adapter without a problem with a few different components with lengths way under 1000ft and never needed a termination resistor. You may have to double check line length and baud rate to verify propagation delay in nanosec to confirm whether you'll need a terminator. I hope this helps.

**Q: is that really a Mini USB? it looks like a Male B USB connector.**
A: It is a Full Size Male USB Connector, not Mini USB. It works really good... and I find it surprising it says Mini; I don't remember it saying that back when I bought it. I hope this helps.

**Q: Is there any visual indicators that it is "working"? i.e. transmit, receive, power, etc. LEDs?**
A: In the instruction sheet that is shown it says:"Power indicator light and data traffic indicator light are also available with the converter for malfunction indication"There are PWR, RXD and TXD labeled LEDs on the module just above the terminal block.

**Q: Is this unit plug and play with Windows 10?**
A: Yes, it fully supports Windows 10.
