Added UART Switch mode to I-7530A-MR, manage various CAN devices easily via UART passing CAN-ID

Product Update 2019-08-29
The I-7530A-MR is a powerful module designed for exchanging the data between the RS-232/485/422. It has supported four communication modes in the past, ASCII to CAN (normal mode), transparent transmission (pair connection mode), CAN to Modbus RTU (Modbus RTU slave mode / Modbus RTU master mode). Now upgrade the firmware with the new [UART Switch] mode. In UART Switch mode, the I-7530A-MR can convert the UART message which consist of CAN-ID to the CAN bus. By using any PC or programmable controllers with UART interface, together with the I-7530A-MR, they can communicate with many CAN devices that are built with user-defined protocols easily. By the UART interface of the PC or programmable controller, the I-7530A-MR helps to manage various CAN devices.




Features (UART Switch Mode):
  • Convert binary UART message to CAN message
  • When converting UART to CAN, UART messages can consist of the CAN-ID.
  • When converting CAN to UART, UART messages can carry with or without CAN-ID
  • Flexibly manage various CAN networks
  • Provides friendly configuration tool


The new firmware can be freely downloaded from the following link:

Applications:
Through dynamic CAN-ID conversion, users can manage the status of CAN devices more easily, such as BMS (Battery Manage System) and CAN I/O modules.



Utility:
We provide friendly operation interface for configuring UART Switch mode.
