LIBO-USB Serial Converter Installation

LIBO-USB is a USB to RS422 / 485 converter. It supports communication with 2/4 wire RS485. This device has a removable terminal block for connection to the device and 2 LEDs that indicate the transmission and reception of data in progress. To operate in 485 mode it is necessary to set the following DIP switches to ON:

1. RS-485 transmission
2. Echo OFF
3. 2-Wire communication

For a Modbus connection with MVC503R-MB, the correct terminals to be used are:

1. TDA
2. TDB
3. GND

The device needs the installation of the drivers either by using the CD-ROM inserted in the box of LIBO-USB or by downloading the drivers from the network (http://www.bb-elec.com/USOPTL4).
