3 DIN-191 & DIN-192 USERS MANUAL  
GENERAL DESCRIPTION  
The DIN-191 and DIN-192 series converter boxes convert RS-232  
communications signal levels to the correct electrical signals required by  
RS-485. The RS-485 communications standard is recommended when  
many modules, or other addressable devices, must be connected to a  
host computer over long distances. The DIN-191 and DIN-192 converters  
allow communications bus lengths up to 4,000 meters and baud rates up  
to 115K baud using one twisted pair of wires.  
The RS-485 communications standard is half-duplex; therefore data can  
be transmitted in only one direction at a time. To determine the direction  
of data on the RS-485 bus, many products require external handshaking  
signals to control the bus direction when transmitting or receiving data.  
This technique often requires that host RS-232 software be written, or  
modified, to accurately control handshaking signals for proper system  
operation. The DIN-191 and DIN-192 automatically control the bus  
direction without external handshaking signals from the host. Therefore,  
host software written for RS-232 may be used without modification. RS-  
485 bus control is completely transparent to the user.  
The DIN-192 is an RS-485 repeater. Repeaters are required to extend  
communications bus lengths or allow more than 32 RS-485 devices to be  
connected to a communications bus. A repeater simply re-amplifies, or  
boosts, existing RS-485 signals transmitted over long distances.  
The DIN-191 and DIN-192 are each isolated between the RS-232 port  
and/or RS-485 ports and require a regulated +5Vdc power supply.

DIN-191 CONNECTORS  
The DIN-191 contains two connectors: a four-pin screw terminal plug and  
a female DB-9 RS-232 connector.  
The four -pin screw terminal plug pin designations are located on the  
label of each module. The screw terminals will accept up to #14 gauge  
wire (AWG). This connector is used for +5.0Vdc regulated power supply  
input and the RS-485 data lines.

5 DIN-191 & DIN-192 USERS MANUAL  
The DIN-191 female RS-232 connector utilizes five connections:  
Transmit  
Receive  
Ground  
Data Set Ready (DSR)  
Clear To Send (CTS)  
pin 2  
pin 3.  
pin 5.  
pin 6  
pin 8  
Both the Data Set Ready (DSR) input pin #6 and Clear To Send (CTS)  
input pin #8 are internally biased to their active state thru a 330W resistor  
to +5Vdc.  
To easily connect to any host PC computer, a straight thru RS-232 cable  
can be used. The RS-232 input Ground and signals are isolated by up to  
500VRMS from the power supply ground. Cable CA-1 is a male-to-male  
DB-9 communications cable available for purchase from us.

An RS-485 repeater is necessary to extend the length of an RS-485  
network, or connect more than 32 RS-485 devices on an RS-485  
network.  
The DIN-192 repeater contains a seven-pin screw terminal plug. The pin  
designations are located on the label of each module. The screw  
terminals will accept up to #14 gauge wire (AWG). This connector is used  
for +5.0Vdc regulated power supply input and both pairs of RS-485 data  
lines. The isolated RS-485 input data lines are clearly marked and their  
ground reference is isolated by up to 500VRMS from the power supply  
ground. The isolated RS-485 input data lines should be attached to the  
end of an existing RS-485 network. The serial data received on the

BAUD RATE  
The DIN-191 and DIN-192 series converters contain a 10-position DIP  
switch located on the bottom of each unit. The DIP switch is used to  
select the correct communications baud rate and must be set to the same  
value as the devices connected to the RS-485 data lines. Each position  
on the DIP switch is labeled from 1 to 10. Switch position 1 selects 300  
baud. Switch positions 2 thru 9 select standard baud rates from 600 to  
57.6K respectively. Switch position10 selects 115.2K baud rate. Only  
one baud rate switch may be turned on (up position) at one time for  
proper operation.  
RS-485 TERMINATIONS  
The proper termination techniques for any RS-485 system require two  
biasing resistors and two termination resistors. The 1kW biasing resistors  
are connected from the DATA line to +5Vdc and from the DATA* line to  
ground. The biasing resistors and are normally positioned at the HOST  
end of the cable. The RS-485 standard also requires two resistors across  
the data lines for proper termination. Two 220W resistors should be  
connected between the DATA and DATA* lines. The resistors should be  
placed at each end of the RS-485 cable. Please refer to Figure 2 for a  
typical RS-485 system application.  
The DIN-191 and DIN-192 each contain the biasing and termination  
resistors necessary to interface any equipment on an RS-485 network.  
These resistors are jumper-selectable making it easier to interface the  
DIN-191 and DIN-192 to other pieces of equipment that may or may not  
contain the biasing and/or termination resistors.

RS-485 TERMINATION & BIASING SETTINGS  
Proper termination and biasing of any RS-485 based system can be  
performed by properly enabling the correct resistors inside each DIN-191  
or DIN-192. Figures 3.0 and 4.0 show the location of the jumpers on the  
printed circuit board. The jumpers are shown in their factory set locations  
to enable the selected resistors. Insert or remove the jumpers as required  
to properly terminate any RS-485 system.
