System Features
1. WAA-232-485 is converts the RS485 data format to RS232. It is essential for
exchanging data between the PC and the controllers.
2. The WAA-232-485 is powered up through a USB port, for easy connection.
3. 1 set of WAA-232-485 can be used to support 32 -128 controllers networked at
the same time.
Note: Do not use the same source of power supply for the WAA-232-485 and the
electrical door lock to avoid electrical sparkle interference.

Switch setting and baud rate regulation
A) DIP 1-3: the switches 1, 2, 3 are used to set the baud rate. The baud rate is set
based on the controller that is connected to the converter WAA-232-485.
WAC-XDY controllers support 9,600 bps only.
B) DIP 4: It is used to set data bit when transmitting.
Standard 11 bits transmitting mode (8,1,1,n modes)
For WAC-XDY controllers the default is DIP1=ON, DIP2=OFF, DIP3=ON, DIP4=ON.
Connection method
