Introduction

The Sealevel COMM+8.422.PCIe (Item# 7802ec) is a PCI Express 2.0 Gen 1 compliant interface adapter

with eight field selectable RS-422/485 asynchronous serial ports supporting data rates exceeding 1 Mbps

for industrial automation and control applications.

Configure the serial ports as RS-422 for long distance device connections up to 4000ft. where noise

immunity and high data integrity are essential. Select RS-485 and capture data from multiple peripherals in

an RS485 multi-drop network. Up to 31 RS-485 compliant devices can be connected to each port to

automate your data collection. You can even mix the ports in any of the electrical interface combinations

to provide maximum flexibility in your application.

Under Windows, in RS-485 mode the transmitter is automatically enabled in hardware, eliminating the need

for application software control. This allows the 7802ec to be used with standard serial communications

applications and removes the risk of bus contention and data corruption. The Sealevel SeaCOM for

Windows software driver and utilities make installation and operation easy in Windows 7/8.1/10.

RS-422 to RS-530 Cable (Part Number CA176)

DB9 Female (RS-422) to DB25 Male (RS-530) Cable, 10 inch

Length. Convert any Sealevel RS-422 DB9 Male Async Adapter

to an RS-530 DB25 Male pinout. Useful in situations where RS-

530 cabling exists, and a multiport Sealevel RS-422 adapter is

to be used.

DB9 Serial Extension Cable (Part Number CA127)

The CA127 is a standard DB9F to DB9M serial extension cable.

Extend a DB9 cable or locate a piece of hardware where it is

needed with this six foot (72 inch) cable. The connectors are

pinned one-to-one, so the cable is compatible with any device

or cable with DB9 connectors. The cable is fully shielded

against interference and the connectors are molded to provide

strain relief. Dual metal thumbscrews secure the cable

connections and prevent accidental disconnection.

Terminal Blocks

Terminal Block Kit - (Part Number KT105)

The KT105 terminal block kit breaks out a DB9 connector to 9

screw terminals to simplify field wiring of serial connections. It

is ideal for RS-422 and RS-485 networks. The KT105 includes

one DB9 terminal block (part number TB05) and one CA127

extension cable. The TB05 includes holes for board or panel

mounting. The TB05 is designed to connect directly to Sealevel

DB9 serial cards or any cable with a DB9M connector.

Terminal Block Kit (Part Number KT106)

The TB06 terminal block has been designed to connect directly

to any Sealevel dual DB9 serial board or to serial boards with

DB9 cables. If you need to extend the length of your dual DB9

connection, the KT106 includes the TB06 terminal block and

two CA127 DB9 extension cables.

Terminal Block Kit (Part Number TB34-8)

The TB34-

8 kit includes eight TB34 terminal blocks and

simplifies RS-422 and RS-485 field wiring. Each terminal block

adapter includes a DB9

female connector and five screw

terminals.

The terminal block is compatible with 2-wire and 4-wire RS-485

networks and matches the RS-422/485 pin-out on Sealevel

serial devices with DB9 male connectors. A pair of

thumbscrews secures the adapter to the ser

ial port and

prevents accidental disconnection. The TB34 is compact and

allows multiple adapters to be used on multi-port serial devices,

such as Sealevel USB serial adapters, Ethernet serial servers

and other Sealevel serial devices with two or more ports.

Card Setup

Address and IRQ Selection

The 7802ec is automatically assigned memory addresses and IRQs by your motherboard BIOS or by a “Plug-

n-Play” Operating System. Adding or removing other hardware or moving the adapter to another slot may

change the assignment of memory addresses and IRQs.

Clock Modes and Baud Rates

The 7802ec derives a 125MHz clock from the PCI express link for the Baud Rate Generator (BRG) which is

divided by a clock prescaler (1 or 4) and a 16-bit clock divisor to obtain a sampling clock of 16X, 8X, or 4X

the serial data rate. The BRG offers a wide range of possible baud rates. Under Windows and Linux, the

best choice of divisor is made automatically by the driver. The bit rate error is within the +/– 2%

recommended tolerance for proper serial communication.

Electrical Interface Selection via Hardware

Each serial port on the 7802ec has the ability to be used as RS-422 or RS-485. Configuration is selectable

via independent per-port DIP switches. Please use the following examples to configure your adapter.

RS-485 Enable Modes

RS-485 is ideal for multi-drop or network environments. RS-485 requires a tristate driver that will allow the

electrical presence of the driver to be removed from the line. The driver is in a tristate or high impedance

condition when this occurs. Only one driver may be active at a time and the other driver(s) must be tri-

stated. Under Windows, configuring a 7802ec port to RS-485 sets the port to automatically assert its output

when transmitting. In RS-485 mode under Windows the port is also set to automatically de-assert its output

at the end of each transmission, returning the driver to tristate so that other drivers can transmit on the line.

Line Termination Selection via Hardware

Typically, the device at each end of the RS-485 bus must have line-terminating resistors (RS-422 terminates

at the receive end only). When the end device is a 7802ec port, the board DIP switches can be used to

connect a built in 120-ohm resistor between each RS-422/485 input pair in addition to a 1K ohm pull-up/pull-

down combination that biases the RX+ and RX– receiver inputs. Independent per-port DIP switches allow

the user to customize each port individually to their specific requirements. If multiple 7802ec ports are

configured in a RS-485 network, only the ports at each end should have switches T, PU, and PD ON.

If using the board in an RS-485 two-wire network, enable the two switches labeled ‘L’, which electrically

connect the TX– and RX– pins together and the TX+ and RX+ pins together.

OFF

Enables RS-485 two-wire mode, connecting TX– to RX–

OFF

Enables RS-485 two-wire mode, connecting TX+ to RX+

Electrical Interface Selection via Software

When a 7802ec has been installed under Windows, the DIP switch Electrical Interface configuration can be

overridden by software settings via the SeaCOM PortManager.NET utility. Changing one port to be

overridden by software will automatically change the other port to also be software overridden. The initial

software override configuration of each port is adopted from its DIP switch configuration. All COM ports of

the 7802ec should be closed by applications when the software override option is changed in Port Settings.

RS-485 Auto-Enable Delay

RS-485 Auto-Enable Delay is an additional configuration setting available only via software selection. It

provides an ability to select a 0 to 15 bit-time delay that is inserted after the end of the last stop-bit of the

last transmitted character. This delay controls when to automatically disable the RS-485 transmitter. This

delay may be useful in long-cable networks.
