The Alternate Path Switch (APS) is an interface adapter that provides an automatic backup dial-up connection to any remote. The APS connects your T/Mon LNX to any serial remote, providing a primary serial connection. If the primary connection fails, the dial-up connection immediately comes on line for uninterrupted polling.
The 232-485B Polling Interface interfaces a two-wire RS-232 data port to a switched-carrier RS-485B data port.
The RS-232 to FSK Converter interfaces an RS-232 data port to a frequency shift keyed (FSK) modem network in the 4 to 8 kHz frequency band. While the RS-232 to FSK Network Converter can be used for any general application that requires data conversion to FSK, it is specifically intended for T/Mon LNX to access alarm data via an FSK equipment.
The 8-Channel ASCII MUX allows you to connect up to eight ASCII data sources to one ASCII port on a T/Mon LNX master. The master controls the MUX to route data to the appropriate port. Each channel has a 16K buffer that allows data to be moved between ports at different data rates. In addition to switching between multiple ports, the 8 Channel ASCII MUX will select a preset data rate for each port. Available data rates are 300, 1200, 2400 and 9600 Baud
The TL1 MUX is a specialized data multiplexer for combining up to 8 data lines using BellcoreTM Transaction Language 1 (TL1) onto a single TL1 line. By observing the delineating semicolon at the end of each TL1 data packet, the processor in the TL1 MUX-8 is able to store and stack incoming data. The TL1 packets are then sent to the common port in the order received and transmitted to the interrogator one-at-a-time.
The 8 Port Serial Switch (SPS8) allows you to connect up to eight data sources to one port on a collection device , such as the NetDog 82IP. Commands from an interrogating ASCII terminal control the switch to route data to the appropriate port. Each channel has a 16K buffer that allows data to be moved between ports at different data rates. In addition to switching between multiple ports, the 8 Port Serial Switch will select a preset data rate for each port. Available data rates are 300, 1200, 2400 and 9600 Baud.
The DPS Telecom FSK Converter interfaces an RS-232 data port to a Frequency Shift Keyed (FSK) modem network. The modem operates at 1200 baud with a center frequency of 1877 Hz.
The FSK Converter with Firmware Version 1.0B is designed to support only one application: mediating alarm data between the T/Mon LNX and the Larse LarScan Series 1200 or Badger 1200 remote telemetry unit. Each FSK System Converter mediates a polling leg of up to 253 Larse/Badger remotes.
Note: This device provides a hardware interface to your Larse/Badger network. To poll the network with a T/Mon LNX, the Larse Interrogator software module (Part number D-SW-LARSE-12001) must be installed on your T/Mon system.
Functional hubs up to 11 RS232 ports to a single RS232 output. Rack mountable 19/23", single rack unit high, available in both wire-wrap and DB9 connections.
The 12-Port Router (8-RS232, 4-Empty Pads), Wire Wrap connects two systems together in a primary/backup configurations and routes the active system (I.e.: 1 four port intelligent ctr). Requires 4 docking modules. Includes RS485 Ctrl & RS232 Craft port. Rack Mountable 19/23".
(T/Mon Protection Switch) Connects two T/Mon's together in a primary/backup configuration and routes the active system to the peripherals. Routes 4 ports per system (I.e. 1 four port intelligent ctrl). Requires 4 docking modules. Includes RS485 Ctrl & RS232 Craft Port and cable kit. Rack-Mountable 19/23".
