SDS-122 SERIAL DATA SWITCH

The SDS-122 is a configurable two-way serial data switch which will allow two modem devices to be connected to a datalogger simultaneously, so allowing both remote and local interrogation of the datalogger to be carried out. It can support both DTE and DCE devices without the need for a null modem cable, and can operate either in manual or automatic mode.

1. INTRODUCTION

The SDS-122 will normally be fitted in a datalogger enclosure. It allows two modems to be connected to a single datalogger at the same time and can automatically switch the datalogger to communicate with whichever modem initiates communications.
The SDS-122 can support both DTE and DCE devices without the need for a null modem cable, and can emulate an SC932 (9-pin to RS232-DCE) interface. One port of the SDS­122 can also be configured to emulate an optically isolated SC32A interface in either DCE or DTE mode. A jumper switch is provided for use with CR10/10X dataloggers to block the transmission of synchronous data.
The SDS-122 can be set either for fully automatic mode, or manual mode, controlled by a datalogger control port or any logic
signal. When in automatic mode, the SDS­122 can be configured to either hold the last port rung or to default to a specific port, when communication finishes on either port.
