Changeover using control sequences: 1 computer runs for example two serial devices
Time-controlled switching with adjustable switch time: 2 computers share for example one serial terminal device: Printer, plotter, hand scanner, card reader, etc...
No manual intervention necessary
Data back channel allows connection of bi-directional peripheral devices
Individual configuration of interfaces
Conversion of baud rate, data format and handshake protocol possible
Integrated diagnostic and startup aid: Setting dump
Extended supply voltage range up to 24V
Shipped optionally with or without power supply: Please order power supplies as separate accessories.
Background information: The W&T RS232 Universal Serial T-Switch is an extremely versatile device. Virtually any uni- or bi-directional 2:1 coupling of RS232 devices is possible with this switch.
The Adapter has 3 serial ports: 1 Master port "C" and 2 Slave ports "A" and "B". Each of these ports can be parameterised independently of the others.
The Switch supports 4 data channels (Master C <> Slave A, Master C <> B), which are equipped in each direction with 1 MB buffers. The channels are switched either timed or using control sequences from one of the three Switch ports.
