3.6 Summary of the Converter Applications

The common topologies implemented with RS-485 and RS-422 are:

1.RS-422 point to point in 2 -wire circuit

2.RS-422 2-wire multi-drop network

3.RS-485 2-wire multi-drop network

4.RS-485 half-duplex bidirectional network in 2-wire topology

5.RS-485 full-duplex bidirectional network in 4-wire topology

The converter is equipped with functionality and flexibility to convert an RS-232 device to a node in any one of the above topologies.
