EDS-2005-EL Overview

Introduction

The SC11 converter serves as a foundational solution for modernizing industrial and commercial systems, providing a reliable bridge between legacy serial devices and contemporary computer systems equipped with USB interfaces. It addresses the critical need to maintain the functionality of existing serial hardware while leveraging the universal connectivity of USB.

The core function of the SC11 is to enable seamless communication by connecting serial devices directly to a standard USB port. This plug-and-play converter eliminates the need for legacy serial ports on host computers, simplifying integration and extending the operational life of valuable serial-based equipment like PLCs, industrial sensors, and data acquisition modules.

Technically, the SC11 is designed for efficiency and ease of use. It features intelligent data format auto-detection and baud rate auto-switching, which allows the device to automatically configure RS422/485 signals without requiring manual switch adjustments. This automation simplifies setup for any baud rate and ensures optimal data flow. The unit is conveniently self-powered via the USB bus, negating the need for an external power adapter, and includes integrated surge protection on each data line for enhanced reliability.
