AS-CVTPROx00-1 Zone Bus/N2 Bus Interface Converter
Application
The AS-CVTPROx00-1 Zone Bus/N2 Interface
Converter is portable converter designed to provide a
communication interface between the room sensors
and controllers operating on a Zone Bus or N2 Bus
and a Personal Computer (PC) or specified models of
the Palm
TM
family of Personal Digital Assistants
(PDAs). See Table 2 for compatible Palm devices. See
Table 4 for compatible tools, Operating Systems (OSs)
and controllers.
Note: The AS-CVTPROx00-1 converter can be used
in place of the MM-CVT101-0 converter module. The
MM-CVT101-0 converter is not compatible with
Windows NT®, Windows® 2000 and later versions of
Windows OSs.
