Product Description

The 4PP065.IF10-1 is a compatible interface module by B&R Automation for PP65 industrial power panels. Like other IF10 interface modules, the 4PP065.IF10-1 provides an interface for the RS232 serial communication protocol. It also has an optional accessory called the PC-PLC/PW cable, which can be used for interfacing a programming device with another CPU. The 4PP065.IF10-1 only has one interface available with a 9-pin male connector. The interface IF1 for RS232 facilitates data transfer using a dedicated UART-type 16C550-compatible controller. At optimal conditions, the 4PP065.IF10-1 has a maximum transfer rate of 115.2 kbps over a maximum distance of 15 meters. Although interface 1 is not network-capable, it employs an input filter that serves as a protective circuit.

During operation, two light-emitting diodes (LEDs) display the status of data transfer or communication. Whenever the RxD LED lights, the module receives data. When the other LED, TxD, lights, the module sends data. With these LED status indicators, you can easily monitor the status of transmissions. Like other 9-pin DSUB connectors dedicated to the RS232 communication protocol, some pins do not have an assignment. In particular, only pins 2, 3, 5, 7, and 8 have definite assignments during data transmission.

Overall, the 4PP065.IF10-1 has a total weight of 49 grams and operates at a temperature range of 0 to 50 degrees Celsius. During operation, transport, and storage, B&R Automation recommends keeping the relative humidity between 10 and 90%, non-condensing. The interface PLC-IF1 has no electrical isolation and employs both parity and stop bits. During installation, the maximum torque for the 4PP065.IF10-1's mounting screw should be 0.6 Nm.
