SL9205 Revision 2/2009 SeaLINK+2/PC.SC User Manual

Introduction

Sealevel’s SeaLINK® 2228 is a dual-port embedded USB to multi-interface serial

adapter intended for mounting directly to a computer chassis, eliminating the need

for an external converter and providing a clean, professional installation. All

configuration and electrical interface selections are handled through the driver, so

you never need to open the enclosure to set jumpers or switches. Each serial port is

individually software configurable for RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485 with the

electrical interface settings maintained locally, allowing the host computer to be

repaired or upgraded without reconfiguring the serial ports.

Sealevel SeaCOM USB software drivers and utilities make installation and

operation easy for Windows 98SE, ME, 2000, XP, and Vista operating systems.

Once the software is installed, plug the 2228 into an available USB port and each

port is recognized as a standard COM port by the host system enabling compatibility

with legacy software. Serial data rates to 921.6K bps are supported.

The 2228 includes a standard sized PC bracket and ships with an internal USB cable

(Item# CA260) that is compatible with many EBX and larger sized motherboards

with 0.1" USB header connectors. For EPIC and smaller sized motherboards, an

internal USB cable with a 2mm header connector (Item# CA383) is available as an

option. Standard operating temperature range is 0°C to 70°C and extended

temperature range (-40°C to 85°C) is optional.

wire or four-wire RS-485

High speed UART with 128-byte Tx FIFO and 384-byte Rx FIFO

Automatic hardware RS-485 enable/disable
