4-port High Speed PCL-846/847 RS-422/485 Interface Cards serial ports • Wide IRQ selection: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12 or 15 • Supports standard DOS COM1, COM2, COM3, and COM4 • Supports DOS/Windows 3.1 (PC-ComLIB), Windows 95/ 98, Windows NT (ICOM Utility) • Provides 1000 V isolation (PCL-846A/846B only) DC • Provides 3000 V surge protection (PCL-846B/847B) DC • Space reserved for termination resistors • Supports 2 wire or 4 wire operation • Supports Tx, Rx, RTS, and CTS signals • Automatic RS-485 data flow control or RTS control Specifications • Ports: 4 • UART: 4 x 16C550 with 16-byte FIFO • Speed: 50 ~ 921.6 Kbps Introduction • Parity: none, even, odd PCL-846/847 series cards provide four independent RS- • Signal support: 422/485 serial ports on a card. Each port has a 16C550 TxD+, TxD-, RxD+, RxD-, CTS+, CTS-, RTS+ and RTS- UART with an on-chip 16-byte FIFO buffer for reliable, high- 6 • I/O address: From 200H to 3F8H speed serial I/O. The UART buffers data into 16-byte packets before putting it on the bus. This drastically • IRQ: 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12 or 15 reduces the CPU load and avoids data loss when the • Isolation voltage: 1000 V (PCL-846A/846B only) DC system is busy and cannot process the interrupt quickly. • Surge protection: 3000 V (PCL-846B/847B) The UART is especially useful for high speed serial I/O DC under Windows. • Power consumption: +5 V @ 250 mA typical, 500 mA max. PCL-846 cards differ from PCL-847 cards in that they utilize • Cables: 30-cm male DB-37 to four male DB-9 (DTE) on-board optical isolators to protect your PC and • Operating temperature: 0 ~ 60° C (32 ~ 140° F) equipment against damage from ground loops, increasing • Storage temperature: -25 ~ 80° C (-13 ~ 176° F) system reliability in harsh environments. To further increase reliability, PCL-846B/847B cards include surge • Dimensions: 185 mm x 100 mm (7.3" x 3.9") protection technology, protecting your system from abrupt high voltage surges (up to 3000 V) such as those caused Pin Assignment by lightning during thunderstorms. An RS-485 Network with Automatic Data Flow Control Using RS-232 Software The RS-485 mode automatically senses the direction of incoming data and switches its transmission direction accordingly. This feature means your network looks and acts just like an RS-232 network. Application software RS-422 RS-485 written for half duplex RS-232 can be used without modification. Moreover, you can simply and quickly build Ordering Information an RS-485 network with just two wires. q PCL-846A: 4-port RS-422/485 interface card w/isolation protection Features q PCL-846B: 4-port RS-422/485 interface card w/isolation • Four independent RS-422/RS-485 serial ports and surge protection • Transmission speeds up to 921.6 Kbps q PCL-847A: 4-port RS-422/485 interface card q PCL-847B: 4-port RS-422/485 interface card w/surge • Independent/shared IRQ settings between each of the 4 protection Daughterboards and Modules Note: All specifications are subject to change without notice 6- 9 NEW Industrial Communication

HARD TO FIND A BETTER PROVIDER
Our company provides services to aid in the manufacture of technological products, such as semiconductors and flat panel displays, and often searching for distributors of obsolete product we require can waste time and money. Finding GID Industrial proved to be a great asset to our company, with cost effective solutions and superior knowledge on all of their materials, it’d be hard to find a better provider of obsolete or hard to find products.
Applied Materials
CONSISTENTLY DELIVERS QUALITY SOLUTIONS
Over the years, the equipment used in our company becomes discontinued, but they’re still of great use to us and our customers. Once these products are no longer available through the manufacturer, finding a reliable, quick supplier is a necessity, and luckily for us, GID Industrial has provided the most trustworthy, quality solutions to our obsolete component needs.

TERRIFIC RESOURCE
This company has been a terrific help to us (I work for Trican Well Service) in sourcing the Micron Ram Memory we needed for our Siemens computers. Great service! And great pricing! I know when the product is shipping and when it will arrive, all the way through the ordering process.

GO TO SOURCE
When I can't find an obsolete part, I first call GID and they'll come up with my parts every time. Great customer service and follow up as well. Scott emails me from time to time to touch base and see if we're having trouble finding something.....which is often with our 25 yr old equipment.
