RS-232↔RS-422 INTERFACE CONVERTERS
5. Operation
Once the Converter is properly installed, it should
operate transparently—as if the two attached devices
were connected to each other with a simple cable. The
Converter gets its operating power from the RS-232 data
and control signals; it has no ON/OFF switch, so it will
begin operating as soon as the RS-232 device powers up.
The Converter passes through all data signals from
the RS-232 and RS-422 interfaces, including any software
flow-control information. It loops back all hardware
flow-control signals from the RS-232 interface—it does
not pass them. It doesn’t support any other signals.
