(a) How do I connect PCI-485/2 to FP-1001 modules (cables, adapters, Terminal Box or converters​? (b) How do I wire FP-1001 modules to get a Full Duplex network up to PCI-485/2?

We are going to set up an RS-485 network with FieldPoint, we need to know which cables to buy and wiring diagram for connecting the FP-1001 modules to a PCI-485/2 card. Can I use CAT-5 UTP cables that we use for our existing LAN?

Tanveer,
The RS-485 standard does not specify a particular connector jack and/or pin-out so you typically see variations throughout the products that provide RS-485 serial communications capabilities. For this reason, the FP-1000/1001 User Manual and the PCI-485/2 User manual do not specify how to connect to each other (or other devices) by pin numbers, but rather by signal names. Likewise, there is no common RS-485 cable with connectors offered for sale.
You will have to build your own custom cable. It is best to use a shielded cable with two twisted pairs.
From a host interface (PCI-485/2), you will cross wire the transmit and receive lines to the first device. This means that you are connecting Tx+(host) to Rx+(sensor), Tx-(host) to
Rx- (sensor), Rx+(host) to Tx+(sensor), and Rx-(host) to Tx-(sensor). The pinout for the PCI-485/2 should be in the user manual. I believe, but am not totally sure (please re-check the manual), that pin 1 is gnd, pin 4 is Rx+, pin 5 is Rx-, pin 8 is Tx+ and pin 9 is Tx-. You will use one of the twisted pairs for the Tx+ and Tx- lines (host) and the other twisted pair for the Rx+ and Rx0 lines (host).

  • Sb 16 pci full duplex HELP!

    ok im running windows 98 with a soundblaster 6 pci and i cannot get full duplex why?i used to be running windows xp and i got full duplex fine could play 2 devices at once but with windows 98 i cant and i was wondering why i cant i play counterstrike and use ventrilo to chat at same time well when i start up the game it cuts ventrilo out so i cant talk and when im in the game i cant talk as well it cuts the sound off to ventrilo so that tthe game lets me hear but i cant hear the chat program so i get no full duplex on windows 98 please help how do i fix this

    On those cards you had a choice of either full duplex (used by default in XP) or another setting reached by right click properties of the card in Device Manager. I forget exactly but I think it's the Direct Sound support?that needs to be turned off within that properties panel to enable full duplex. It's an either or situation on these cards. If direct sound is on, the full duplex mode is deactivated. I think Direct Sound games would still work, just without the hardware buffer support. I guess you could just toggle that back on when gaming and off when conferencing. You probably need to restart the computer for the changes to take effect.

  • Connecting PCI-6035E and SCB-68 and control a laser to turn on/off

    I have connected SCB-68 to a 15pin cable and connected to a laser. From computer I have connected PCI-6035E board to SCB-68 to control a Laser to turn on and off from a LabVIEW program. I have connected PIN#, 6,7, 14 from SCB-68 to 15pin connecter cable, and I connected PCI-6035E board to SCB-68. My program is not turning on the laser.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    dnchari:
    Thanks for the manual. Youll need to set up the jumpers for external modulation and laser enable as shown in section II of the manual.
    On you 15 pin connector you will need to wire pin 4 to pin 5. This will enable the laser. Later, once you can verify modulation, maybe we can use the DAQ card to control the on/off.
    You made mention of DACOUT0 and AOGND, these look like the signals you need to connect- DACOUT0 wired to pin 8 (EXT MOD) and AOGND to pin 7 (GND).
    NOTE: Looks like 0V into the laser is no power, 1.350V into it is full power, so do not exceed 1.350V when commanding the analog output voltage.
    Hopefully this should get you started. Wear the proper wavelength laser safety goggles.

  • Can i connect pci-7344 to my third party motor and drive without umi-7764 ?

    Our Lab have NI pci-7344 motion controller and third party motor and drive made by other company.
    We want to connect pci-7344 and third party motor & drive without umi-7764.
    Just use cable.
    Can we succeed to connect them ?

    In general it is possible to connect the PCI-7344 to a motor drive without using a UMI-7764 but you will loose some safety features and the level of noise immunity for encoder signals will be decreased.
    Please have a look at this link for more information.

  • HT1386 My iOS device (Ipad mini) only appears in iTunes while cable-connected, but does not appear after diconnect the cable. How can I Wifi sync ?

    Hi, My iOS device (Ipad mini) only appears in iTunes while cable-connected, but does not appear after diconnect the cable. How can I Wifi sync ?
    Documents say
    Whenever the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, the iOS device will appear in iTunes, and you can sync it....
    But I can't see my iPad Mini in iTunes.
    And my  Ipad  (Settings, General, iTunes Wifi Sinc)  shows  a message :" Sync will resume when xxx(my PC with iTunes) is available "...
    Both are in the same network,
      Ipad mini is is plugged in to power
    . iTunes is open on the computer
    what can i Do ???

    Hi Skydiver119,  and tks for four interest.
    I have done exactly as you say, but it does not work for me.
    You indicated  " Navigate to the info tab and scroll down. There'll be a check box for 'sync over wifi' or something to that effect. Check that box and sync to affirm your choice."
    I navigated to Summary tab (not Info Tab) and checked "Sync with this ipad over Wi-Fi"
    I disconnect the wire,
    and my iPad disappears from my iTunes screen.
    in my iPad ->Settings -> General -> iTunes Wi-Fi Sync -> says " Sync will resume when (my PC) is available.
    So, I can not sync via wi-fi
    I appreciate if you can help me.

  • I want to delete a few contacts, apps, pics etc from my iphone, but when I delete and connect to my laptop they sync and come back again. How can I delete those items and not get them back when I connect my iphone to my laptop?

    I want to delete a few contacts, apps, pics etc from my iphone, but when I delete and connect to my laptop they sync and come back again. How can I delete those items and not get them back when I connect my iphone to my laptop?
    Also where exactly on the laptop is teh data stored.
    Thank you!!

    go to 'Edit' in the menu bar. Then choose 'Preferences'.
    you'll see a pop-up and there's a tab called 'Devices' there. If you click that, you will be able to check a box that says 'prevent automatic syncing for iPods, iPads and iPhones' or something like that.
    Hope this helps
    NB: if you don't even see the menu bar that has options like 'File, Edit, View, etc', first click the black/white square button on the top left of your screen, and then click 'show menu bar'. It should pop right up.
    Good luck

  • Halfway through the OS X Yosemite update it says I am not connected to the internet (when I know I am because I can search through the app store). How can I fix this? I cannot get on Safari because it requires an update to Mac OS X 10.9 or later.

    Halfway through the OS X Yosemite update it says I am not connected to the internet (when I know I am because I can search through the app store). How can I fix this? I cannot get on Safari because it requires an update to Mac OS X 10.9 or later.

    Just to be clear. You have downloaded the Yosemite installer. However you say while it's updating you get the error you are not online. This is confusing since you shouldn't be able to use your computer in the process of updating.
    Exactly where do you see you need to 10.9 to get on Safari?

    First, try tapping on the network in the Wi-Fi settings and then tap "forget this network". Then reselect the network in the main Wi-Fi settings screen and see if will then ask for a password. If not, try resetting the Network Settings in the General -> Reset section and then reconnecting to your W-iFi.

  • Is PCI-6025E full duplexing ?

    Do E series DAQ boards work in full-duplex mode ? Especially PCI-6025E .

    I believe I may have sent you an e-mail about this. However, I would be glad to post about it here as well.
    Full-duplexing is not a term we commonly associate with our DAQ boards. It is usually used in reference to serial-type communication that can go both ways at the same time (such as a modem). The best answer I can give on this is that the 6025E you asked about has 3 additional DIO ports (PA, PB, PC) which can operate in Bi-Directional Mode. This allows them to function as both inputs and outputs. The 6025E User's Manual is the best place to find more information about this.

  • How to connect my Satellite C650 to TV with HDMI cable?

    Connecting my laptop with my television??
    I have Satelite C650 laptop which isnt that old, but ive connected my laptop to the television using a HDMI cable and it isnt working.
    The television is a samsung 1080p one, i would be grateful for some advice.
    Many thanks
    Claire

    Hello Claire
    I presume you use your notebook with original preinstalled OS that you got with your notebook so it should work without problems.
    Connect your notebook to the TV with HDMI cable. If your TV has several HDMI ports please enable right port on TV and after doing this use FN+F5 key combination to switch from notebook to the TV.
    When you use FN+F5 key combination can you see several options including HDMI option?
