Quick Start Guide LC-IND422-485-IRPT
Optically Isolated RS-422/485 Repeater
Introduction
The LC-IND422-485-IRPT is an optically isolated RS-422/485 isolated line repeater that can be used to isolate a piece of equipment from the rest of the network. As a repeater,
it extends the distance of an existing network an additional 1.2 km (4000 ft.) and expands it beyond the typical 32-node limitation. Data signals and the power inputs connect to
the terminal block. 600W surge suppression ensures that the connected equipment is protected even in the harshest of environments. 2-wire RS-485, 4-wire RS-485 and RS-422
are supported. The repeater operates on externally sourced 10 to 30 VDC power. The enclosure has a DIN rail mount that is designed to t easily on a standard 35mm rail.
Bias is provided by 4.7kΩ pull-up/down resistors on the Data In lines. This value is adequate for most applications without termination. If another value is required, space is
provided on the PC for through-hole resistor placement (R12, R21, R14, and R23)
