Functional Description　

The VXC-182i serial card provides two communication ports, one is RS-422/485 and the other is RS-232 port. It offers speed up to 115.2Kbps and long distance communication link.

In the harsh industrial environment, the on board surge protection can protect the computer and equipment from being damaged by high potential voltage. 

Along with the basic communication feature, the VXC-182i can withstand isolation voltage up to 3K Vdc.  

In addition, the user can select a specified COM port number manually by setting dip switch, or let the driver to choose an available number automatically. The driver provides a maximum of 128KB software FIFO for each COM port under Windows. It’s practical for large file transmission. 

Advantages 

• Built-in COM-Selector                 

• Self-Tuner Inside

• 3KV Isolated RS-422/485 port

• Up to 128KB software FIFO for each COM port under Windows

• Short Card Design
