Interface Mismatch
RS232, RS422, RS485 and TTL devices use different electrical signaling and cannot be connected by pin wiring alone.
RS232 · RS422 · RS485 SOLUTION
RS232, RS422 and RS485 Interface Conversion Solution
Connect incompatible serial interfaces while matching wiring mode, transmission environment, isolation needs and industrial topology.
Build a reliable point-to-point or multidrop data path with the correct DTECH converter, isolator or interface device for each electrical layer.

FIELD TO NETWORK
Distance and Noise
Long routes, motors, switching equipment and ground differences can destabilize an otherwise correct serial link.
Wiring-Mode Errors
Two-wire and four-wire systems require different transmit, receive and direction-control arrangements.
Protection Requirements
Passive conversion may be insufficient where isolation, surge protection or powered signal conditioning is required.
SOLUTION ARCHITECTURE
A Clear Path from Field Device to Operational Data
Use the interface and network constraint to define each connection layer before selecting a model.
