Embedded RS-485/422 interface

M30 RS-485/422 plug-in module for Anybus-CC communication slot

The Anybus CompactCom M30 for RS-485/422 is a complete embedded communication module and slave interface which enables your products to communicate on a RS-485/422 network. The module contains the complete functionality of industrial network slave/adapter interfaces and integrate through a standardized and network independent parallel or serial application interface towards the host automation device

This module enables a transparent RS-485/422 channel using the serial channel of the application interface only.

Forward compatible with M40

The CompactCom 40-series modules support the same APIs as the 30-series Modules. This means, if you are already using or want to combine the RS-485/422 with 40-series embedded Industrial Ethernet modules, it's possible to support both a mixture of CompactCom 30-series and 40-series modules within your embedded industrial device.

Features and benefits

  • A complete, interchangeable communication module with connectors
  • Short in-design with free assistance from HMS ensures a fast time to market
  • for network compliance (enables faster network certification)
  • Standard application hardware interfaces: 8-bit parallel and serial

RS-485/422 Slave Interface

  • Passive module w/o procesor
  • Completely transparent serial RS-485/422 Interface, via serial interface only
  • Module Identification against the application
  • Physical layer converter for RS-485/422
  • Can be enabled in either RS-485 or RS-422 mode

New applications or designs

Although CompactCom 30 series is fully available and supported by HMS with network updates and maintenance, we recommend the new CompactCom 40 series for new designs, especially for Industrial Ethernet versions.
