Mit Selihc Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 Hi I've already posted about this in the Visilogic forums, but I've recently upgraded to UniStream. For my application I'm using a water quality sensor that has RS485 comm protocol. Can I use the RS485 socket on the CPU to communicate with this sensor? Or do I need a dedicated Comm module? http://www.aquaread.co.uk/downloads/manuals/Aquaread-BlackBox-Manual.pdf UniStream looks great! Just getting to grip with the differences between it and Visilogic! Thanks in Advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael_P Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 The CPU hosts a RS 485 port that you can use for communication. This port is available for use. You can set it up as a configuration in the process tree on the right hand side of the software. It does not require configuration function blocks such as VisiLogic would. I hope this helps to clarify. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
