Table 10-1: DSLC-2 - Interfaces - overview
RS-232 Serial Interface (Interface #1)
A freely configurable RS-232 interface is provided to serve as a local service interface for configuring the unit
and visualize measured data. It is possible to connect a modem for remote control and alarm signaling. The serial
interface 1 provides a ServLink as well as a Modbus protocol.
RS-485 Serial Interface (Interface #2)
A freely configurable RS-485 Modbus RTU Slave interface is provided to add PLC connectivity. It is also possi-
ble to configure the unit, visualize measured data and alarm messages and control the unit remotely.
RJ-45 Ethernet Interfaces (Network A, Network B)
Standard Ethernet ports for device interconnection (Network A – UDP Protocol) and PLC connection
(Network B – TCP/IP Protocol).
