RS-232/RS-485 Programming Sample
Solution:
Most ADVANTECH EPC CPU boards have one serial port which support RS-232/RS-422/RS-485. However, because of the limited CPU board space, the on-board RS-485 function doesn't support Bus Direction Automatically Control like ADAM series. You may have to use program to control Request to Send (RTS) signal if required by RS-485 communications cards or converter like most ADVANTECH EPC CPU boards. (DEMO03.BAS)
