Serial Data Switches
Model 232BSS4, our most versatile and intelligent smart
switch, ships with Vlinx Q4, B&B Electronics’ serial network management software.
It provides visualization-mapping and helps set up your network of RS-232 devices
with a few keystrokes. A single RS-232 port on your PC can now communicate
seamlessly with four or more RS-232 devices.
Vlinx Q4 software configures ports and assigns a Windows COM port within Windows
2000 or XP. Once configured, simply run your existing application software to converse
with each device as if it was directly wired to your PC.
When used with B&B Electronics RS-485 or fiber optic converters, the Model 232BSS4
smart switch may be connected to PCs or serial devices miles away. Requires 12 VDC
power.
