Splitting Serial Communication

The problem:

The customer have an industrial weighing scale connected to a digital display using RS232. In addition, the customer wanted that the weight will be also connected to a remote computer.

​

Our solution:

Communication converter with RS232 input, RS232 output and RJ45 Connector.

​

Technical description of the controllers and the development:

The converter is based on the Tibbo Modular Controller. In this specific project, the converter includes RS232 input, RS232 output and a network connection. The converter get the data from the RS232 input and send it to the RS232 output which is connected to the digital display and also to the network connection. The software of the customer (which is installed on the remote computer) connects to the IP address of the converter and get the data as well.
