Owner's manual

Renkforce RS422 is a galvanically isolated RS422/RS485 signal converter. It can be used to connect two RS422/RS485 devices that are not electrically isolated from each other. The device can also be used to extend the range of an RS422/RS485 network. The Renkforce RS422 is powered by a 9-40 V/DC power supply and has a maximum transmission distance of 5000 m (9.6 - 115.2 kbps). The device has a 2500 Vrms isolation voltage and an ESD protection of ±15 kV. The Renkforce RS422 is housed in a compact case and has a weight of 115 g.

Safety instructions
Please read the operating instructions carefully and pay particular attention
to the safety instructions. We do not assume liability for any injuries/mate-
rial damages resulting from failure to observe the safety instructions and the
information in these operating instructions regarding the proper use of the
product. Furthermore, in such cases, the warranty/guarantee will be null and
void.
The electrical galvanic isolation of the RS422/RS485 signal paths by the product
intends to protect the serial interfaces and to ensure trouble-free data/signal trans-
mission. The product will not protect people against touching dangerous voltages.
The product is not a toy. Keep out of the reach of children and pets.
Do not carelessly leave the packaging material lying around. It may become a
dangerous plaything for children.
Protect the product from extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, strong vibrations
and combustible gases, vapours and solvents.
Never expose the product to mechanical stress. Please handle the product care-
fully. The product can be damaged if crushed, struck or dropped, even from a low
height.
If safe operation is no longer possible, take the device out of service and secure
it against unintended use. Safe operation is no longer ensured, if the product has
visible damage, is no longer functioning properly, has been stored under unfa-
vourableenvironmentalconditionsforalongerperiodoftimeorwassignicantly
compromised during transport.
Also observe the safety and operating instructions of any other devices that are
connected to this product.
If you have doubts about how the product should be operated or how to safely
connectit,consultaqualiedtechnician.
Maintenance, adjustment and repair work should only be carried out by an expert

Assembly
Attach the supplied bracket to the back of the adapter; Use the two screws
located in the casing. Now you can clamp the holder onto a suitable DIN rail.
Troubleshooting tips
When there is no connection between the signal links, check:
Voltage/power supply (“PWR” LED must be on)
Correct allocation of the signals to the connections (input/output)
Wiring inside the connection terminals (are all wires properly stripped?)
Flashing/illumination of the “RXD” reception LED
Flashing/illumination of the “RXD” transmission LED
Settings of the data rate or the send/receive format
The cable used, how the cable is installed and other conditions have great impact on long
transmission distances.
Care and cleaning
Disconnect the product from the mains supply before each cleaning procedure.
Use a dry, lint-free cloth to clean the product.
Never use abrasive cleaning agents, rubbing alcohol or other chemical solutions, since these
could damage the casing or even impair operation.
Disposal
Electronic devices are recyclable materials and do not belong in the household waste.
Dispose of an unserviceable product in accordance with the relevant statutory regu-
lations.Thatwayyoufullyourstatutoryobligationsandcontributetotheprotection
