|
The ACM/Flex-16 is an option for the Intellicon-NT960 serial I/O subsystem.The ACM/Flex-16
brings the Connect Tech "Flex" technology to the Intellicon-NT960. The Connect
Tech flex technology features RS-232, RS-485 and Current Loop line interfaces.

Features:
-
Cirrus Logic RISC CD1400 communications controller, with 12 bytes of FIFO
per port that offer high speed data communications up to 115.2 Kbps per port.
-
Up to one hundred and twenty eight ports per Intellicon-NT960 host
adapter using ACM16's or ACM/Flex-16's.
-
The ACMFlex-16 offers a highly modular and lightweight design that allows
you to integrate them easily into your application. They are fully compatible with the
standard RS-232 ACM-16.
-
Serial Line Interface Modules (SLIMs)
that provide different electrical interfaces such as RS-232, RS-485/422
and 20mA current loop on the same ACM/Flex-16 module. As hardware requirements change
within the application, you may field upgrade the ACM/Flex-16 with the SLIM that meets
your needs. Serial Line Interface Modules offer more flexibility than what other
multi-port serial products provide.
-
The ACM/Flex-16 provides full support for 1/2 duplex ( 2 wire) and full
duplex ( 4 wire) RS-485 communications.
Ease of Use:
-
The ACM/Flex-16 provides easy to read LEDs to indicate the type of SLIM
installed on a port.
-
The ACM/Flex-16 are the ACM-16 are fully compatible with each other.
ACM-16's and ACM/Flex-16's can be mixed and matched to meet your exact requirements.
