NC-N485-PCI2 Personal Computer Interface (One per Com Port)

The N-485-API-2, N-485-PCI-2, and N-485-HUB-2 interfaces can be used with your current N-1000-II and any version of PC-PAK or WIN-PAK software. The new ACK/NAK protocol requires Win-Pak V1.12 or higher. All data communications are continually supervised when using the ACK-NAK protocol. The interfaces provide automatic buffering of panel information upon loss of communication to the host computer, HUB or PCI (using ACK-NAK). Distances of up to 4000' can be reached with the interfaces. Greater distances can be accomplished with the N-485-RPT (repeater). Built in features make them highly immune to outside interferences. The N-485-API-2 is not required with the N-1000-III or the N-1000-IV.

The N-485-PCI-2 and N-485-HUB-2 interfaces convert RS485 to RS232. The N-485-PCI-2 is used at the computer for a direct connect system. The N-485-HUB-2 is utilized with an auto-dial modem at a remote location, and comes with plus in power supply. Use of the N-485 interfaces will increase the communication speed as well as data integrity. For those high security applications involving supervised communications, a N-485 interface is a must.

The N-485-API-2 (Access Control Panel Interface) provides an RS485 communications interface to your existing N-1000-II. The N-485-API-2 interface converts the 20mA current loop supplied by the N-1000-II to an RS485 signal which can be used on the multi-drop line. Northerns RS485 multi-drop line can support usp to 31 RS485 nodes per COM port system.

The N-485-PCI-2 and N-485-HUB-2 interfaces convert RS485 to RS232, and both come with plug-in power supply. The N-485-PCI-2 is used at the computer for a direct connect system. The N-485-HUB-2 is utilized with an auto-dial modem at a remote location.
