More Information

Overview Manuals Specifications Routing Modes Configuration Diagnostics

Features:

  • Intelligent routing between EtherNet/IP and DH485
  • AIC Mode conversion between RS485 and RS232
  • Transparent PCCC access for SLC5/03 programming
Legacy DH485 equipment can be reached from an Ethernet-based Logix architecture through the A-DH485R/B Series B router. The unit is also suitable for remote SLC5/03 programming over Ethernet.

Routing Table, Transparent PCCC, and AIC modes address different migration needs. AIC operation converts between RS-485 and RS-232, while mapped routing can direct DH485 destination nodes and data files toward configured Logix controllers.

Select the operating mode before building the Slate project, then confirm node addresses, serial wiring, Ethernet routes, and controller ownership. Packet displays in the webserver provide useful evidence when a mapped destination does not respond.
Migration documentation and system-matching support for the ProSoft A-DH485R/B DH485 Router can be obtained from Apter Power.

Description
The A-DH485R/B is a ProSoft DH485 Router that provides intelligent data routing between EtherNet/IP and DH485. It is intended to simplify migration from MicroLogix and SLC systems with DH485 communications to EtherNet/IP-based ControlLogix or CompactLogix platforms. The router can also support remote programming of an SLC5/03 controller through Ethernet. A mapping table uses the DH485 destination node address and, in applicable modes, the data file address to direct traffic to as many as eight Logix controllers.

The A-DH485R/B includes AIC Mode for direct conversion between RS485 and RS232, making it suitable as a functional replacement for the Rockwell 1761-NET-AIC in supported applications. Transparent PCCC mode permits programming and connection to SLC5/03 controllers, while Direct-To-Tag technology supports Logix integration. Reactive tag mapping and Scheduled tag mapping cover slave and master-style exchanges, and PLC5/SLC mapping is supported. PanelView Plus and PV800 terminals can be interfaced from Ethernet to the supported serial networks.

The A-DH485R/B can operate in Logix-owned or standalone mode. When a Logix connection is used, input and output assemblies make additional diagnostic information available in the controller environment. Its isolated RS232 and RS485 interfaces share a nine-way terminal, while two Ethernet ports can form a Device Level Ring or an embedded switch. Slate Configuration Utility and the built-in webserver provide configuration, troubleshooting, received-packet display, and detailed operating diagnostics.

Can A-DH485R/B connect my SLC or MicroLogix system to EtherNet/IP?
A-DH485R/B supports intelligent routing among compatible Logix, SLC, and MicroLogix controllers; verify the selected routing mode and controller firmware.
Can A-DH485R/B replace a 1761-NET-AIC?
A-DH485R/B provides AIC Mode for direct RS485-to-RS232 conversion, but wiring, baud rate, and application behavior must be reviewed before replacement.
How is A-DH485R/B configured?
A-DH485R/B is configured with Slate Configuration Utility; define Ethernet settings, DH485 parameters, controller connections, and the required mapping table.
What should I check when A-DH485R/B is not communicating?
A-DH485R/B troubleshooting should start with Ethernet link, DH485 node address, baud rate, parity, serial wiring, mapping status, and webserver diagnostics.
Can A-DH485R/B program an SLC5/03 remotely?
A-DH485R/B supports remote SLC5/03 programming over Ethernet when Transparent PCCC mode and the supported communication path are configured correctly.
Where is the official A-DH485R/B documentation?
A-DH485R/B official ProSoft datasheet is the first link in the Manuals tab; use the current official user manual for installation and commissioning.
What information is needed to quote A-DH485R/B?
