This is the industry's most widely used, balanced, bidirectional transmission line standard. RS-485 was specifically developed for industrial applications to transmit and receive data at high rates over long distances.

Special circuitry ensures reliable communications and suppresses line noise on communication lines. This reduces overall network cost by simplifying installation and minimizing the number of cables, connectors, communication repeaters and filters required. The RS-485 communication protocol will support half-duplex communication. Only two wires are needed for transmitting and receiving data. Handshaking signals such as RTS (Request to Send) normally control the direction of the data flow. A special I/O circuit in the ADAM-4510 and ADAM-4520 modules sense the data flow direction and automatically switches the transmission direction, making handshaking signals unnecessary. This makes the RS-485 bus control completely transparent to the user. Transient Protection High-speed transient suppressors protect the system from dangerous voltage surges or power spikes from both the power supply input and the communication ports. Built-in RS-232 Communication Network Expansion The RS-232 port is used to connect to a host PC for programming, control and monitoring of applications. This aids troubleshooting, and allows a PC to be linked with all the I/O points of the I/O modules. By using the ADAM-4510 repeater to amplify or boost existing signals, your networks can be stretched beyond 1.2 km. ADAM ASCII Protocol and Modbus/RTU Protocol Each ADAM-4510 repeater enables you to add up to 32 ADAM-5000 units to your network, extending the network by another 4000 feet (1.2 km). Up to 256 ADAM-5000/485, ADAM5000E units can be connected to a single RS-485 network. ADAM-5000 commands are in ASCII format. ADAM applications can be written in any high-level language that supports ASCII string functions, such as C, Pascal or VB. ASCII support means you can use virtually any computer to manage your ADAM network. RS-232 to RS-485 Conversion Furthermore, the Modbus/RTU protocol is supported for connecting to 3rd party controllers. RS-232 serial ports are standard with most industrial computer systems. Though widely accepted, RS-232 has limited transmission speed, range and networking capabilities. The RS-485 standard overcomes these limitations by using differential voltage lines for data and control signals. ADAM-4520 is an isolated converter that lets you take advantage of RS-485 on an RS-232 system by converting RS-232 signals to RS-485 signals. Software written for half-duplex RS-232 may also be used without modification. ADAM-4520 helps you build an industrial grade, long distance communication system with standard PC hardware.
