The latest real-time emulation hardware module from RF Solutions is designed to simplifythe development of embedded systems based on Arizona Microchip's PIC16F87X family of 8-bit microcontrollers
Programming is via a built-in RS232 interface.
With a range of up to 600m, and a tough ABS housing, the network configurable 232C-868FR1 is suitable for use in a wide range of applications in the most difficult environments.
The unit requires a 9 to 12V DC power supply and has a baud rate that is selectable between 1200 and 38,400bit/s.
Using a control device with communications software, the modem can be set to either transparent mode, transparent secured mode, addressed secured mode or I/O copy mode depending on the requirements of the specific application.
A further feature of the versatile ETSI300-220 (CE) compliant 232C-868FR1 is four user configurable digital I/O channels that can be used to transfer TTL logic signals from one modem to another.
Six status LEDs are provided to indicate transmit/receive, clear-to-send/ready-to-send and power on.
The 232C-868FR1 is able to operate across a temperature range of -40 to +85C.
The ABS housing, which features wall mounting lugs, has overall dimensions of 110 x 85 x 35mm.
