When multiple Card Readers have to be installed in cluster, RS 485 Bus topology
is used. It uses 2 wire half duplex communication bus and the cable can be
extended upto 1.2 km (of course using suitable screened, twisted pair 0.75
sq.mm. cable) from the computer Comport. Since, the PC does not support RS
485 port, a communication converter is required to convert the same to RS
232C. This converter is termed as COMCON. It operated on 230V AC & is
provided with a 2m Cable to connect it to PC Comport. There is a screw terminal
provides for RS 485 cable connection. |
