Interface converter
TraxBus to EIA-RS232 / EIA-RS485
Transparent communication or with MODBUS ASCII and MODBUS RTU protocols

TraxBus conversion to the following standard physical layers:
 • EIA-RS232
 • EIA-RS485
TraxInterface4 can drive up to 250 remote peripherals operating in two different modes:
 • Transparent
 • Modbus® ASCII / RTU
An additional service port is available for monitoring and configuration.
A complete galvanic isolation is provided between local interfaces to fieldbus and power supply.

EIA RS232 – TRAXBUS

Is the easiest way to implement TraxBus when the number of remote peripherals and the system architecture does not require more than 1 TraxBus line. A single master controller is connected to SubD 9 female socket: only RxD, TxD and GND are required.

EIA RS485 – TRAXBUS

EIA-RS485 operates in push-pull action over two lines, allowing the connection of up to 32 transceivers, thus can be used to drive one or more TraxBus lines. A single master controller is connected to SubD 9 female of one or more TraxInterface4.
