4. 3 1 Overview The PPM3 Programming Module can be controlled from any external device which supports either the RS 232 or RS 485 hardware communications protocols The Module features an RS 232 port which can connect to a COM port of any suitable Control System such as a PC running the Equinox EQTools software This mode of operation is restricted to a single programmer channel In many medium to high volume production applications there is a requirement to run more than one PPM3 programmer from the same PC COM port This can be achieved by daisy chaining up to 16 modules using the RS 485 In Out ports on each programmer on an RS 485 bus and using an RS 485 converter to convert the PC RS 232 COM port to the required RS 485 levels The Equinox ISP PRO Software Suite is required to run the programmers in this mode The table below details the applications of both the RS 232 and RS 485 communications modes Fig 3 1 PPM3 Comparison of RS 232 RS 485 Serial Communication Interfaces Maximum Programmer Serial Description Programming Node port channels Address 0 Single Channel RS 232 Operation can be Set Communications Mode altered Switch to RS 232 Programmer connects to PC COM port or other RS 232 Control System via RS 232 cable Programmer Communications Node Address is set to 0 This is the factory default setting Multi channel RS 485 operation Set Communications Mode Switch to RS 485 Allows u
