Power-One PVI-USB-RS485-232 Adapter RS485 to USB and RS232 for PC
PVI-USB-RS485-232 Adapter RS485 to USB and RS232 for PC
Isolated RS485/RS232-to-USB Signal Converter
The PVI-USB-RS485_232 signal converter is the entry-level tool for Power One Aurora inverters monitoring. The PVI-USB-RS485_232 is based on FTDI FT232RQ microcontroller, USB2.0 standard compatible. The variety of available drivers* makes the converter suitable to be used with the most common OS. The communication port to the inverter is isolated respect to the USB (isolation voltage: 2500Vdc), it’s compatible with Power One Aurora communication protocol and can be set as RS232 or RS485. The PVI-USB-RS485_232 is self-powered through USB port which is connected. The PVI-USB-RS485_232 is suitable for the communication with string or central inverters to get communication and monitoring with the following softwares:
- Aurora Communicator (rel. 2.8.x or later) – String or central inverters monitoring
- Aurora Installer (rel. 3.1.4 or later) – String inverters configuration and monitoring
- Aurora CVI Central (rel. U.0055 or later) – Central inverters configuration and monitoring
- Aurora Stringcomb Installer (rel. U.0045 or later) – String combiner boxes configuration and monitoring.
