1. APPLICATIONThe PD0 converter is a device which transmits data from the USBinterface to the RS-8 industrial interface. USB interface, as the first,is destined to communicate with the device having a USB Host port,which is the most frequently a PC computer.The RS-8 interface, as the second, is destined to communicate withdevices in the object side. The maximal baud rate is Mb/s. This baudrate depends on the RS-8 cable length. The converter does not inter-fere in the structure of transmitted data and is compatible with severalindustrial communication protocols, e.g. Modbus RTU, Modbus ASCII,a.s.l. In order to protect devices at both sides of interfaces, a galvanicseparation is applied.A program controller of the virtual serial port COM for the computer PCis added to the set.It allows to exchange data by master programs with industrial objectsthrough the P0 converter.2.
