What is RS232?
RS232 (Recommended Standard 232) is a standard for serial communication that defines the electrical characteristics and timing of signals. It is widely used for connecting computers and peripheral devices. Typically, RS232 interfaces operate at voltages between -15V to +15V, with a common signal voltage of -12V and +12V, which makes them incompatible with standard 240V AC systems. Hence, RS232 converters are essential when you need to integrate these two systems.
How Does an RS232 Converter Work?
An RS232 converter for 240V AC applications converts the serial data from RS232 format into a format that can be transmitted over 240V AC power lines. Here’s a simplified overview of how these converters work:
- Signal Conversion: The RS232 signals are digital and low-voltage, while 240V AC signals are high-voltage and alternating. The converter takes the RS232 data and modulates it onto the 240V AC line.
- Isolation: Many RS232 converters provide electrical isolation, protecting sensitive equipment from high voltage spikes or surges that may occur in the power line.
- Decoding: At the receiving end, another RS232 converter decodes the modulated signal back into the RS232 format, allowing the connected device to interpret the data.
