DESCRIPTION
The TTL-485-5P is a bi-directional 5V externally powered RS485 to 5V TTL converter which converts a half-duplex RS485 port to a 5V TTL signal. A built-in data direction auto-turnaround feature automatically enables the TTL driver when data is present from the RS-485 port, eliminating the need for software drivers, and making the device fully plug-and-play. The TTL-485-5P has a DB9 male connector on the RS485 port, and DB9 male connector on the TTL port. Two separate terminal blocks are included with the product - one for the RS485 port and the other for the TTL port. The terminal blocks plugs into the RS485 and TTL ports, providing screw-lug wire terminations for the ports. The unit is enclosed in a rugged ABS housing, and is externally powered. This converter operates from 300 to 115,200 baud.

Using one TTL-485-5P unit:
- Check that all connections comply with the connection diagrams.
- Perform a loop back test on one unit:
-
- Connect the IN to OUT on the TTL port.
- Connect the RS-485 port to the PC RS-485 port.
- Running a hyper terminal program on the PC, send ASCII characters to the TTL-485-5P converter from one PC port, and check that the characters are received at the same PC port. This tests that the transmit and receive functions of the TTL-485-5P unit is working properly.
Using two TTL-485-5P units:
- Check that all connections comply with the connection diagrams.
- Perform a loop back test on two units:
-
- Connect the two TTL ports. Connect TTL IN to TTL OUT and TTL OUT to TTL IN.
- Connect the two RS-485 ports to two PC RS-485 ports.
- Running hyper terminal programs on both PCs, send ASCII characters to the TTL-485-5P converter from one PC port, and check that the characters are received at the 2nd PC port. Repeat the test in the opposite direction. This tests that the transmit and receive functions of both TTL-485-5P units are working properly.
