Motrona PR210 Signal Converter Parallel Input to Serial RS232 RS485 Output

The PR210 signal converter is used to convert parallel data from encoders, sensors, BCD preselectors, or controllers into a serial data stream. The device is primarily used when older controllers with a parallel data interface need to be replaced with more modern devices with a serial interface. Using the PR210 converter, the existing parallel structure and cabling of a machine can be retained. In addition to this primary application, the device can also be used for a variety of other tasks.

On the input side, the data can be in BDC, binary, or Gray code. The input data is packaged in a serial protocol and forwarded to one or more receivers via the serial interface.
