Product Description
Interactive Technologies SM-RS485 Serial Smart Module
Overview
Smart modules add additional functionality and connectivity to select CueServer 3 models by plugging them into an available module slot.
Use the SM-RS485 module to interface to devices that require RS‐485 serial communications. These may include video projectors, window covering motors, automation systems, media servers and more.
Additionally, the SM-RS485 module also supports alternate protocols including Station Bus and DMX. In Station Bus mode, these modules allow for direct connection of 5‐Wire CueStation button stations (such as Mystique or Ultra stations). In DMX mode, the module can be used to communicate via the DMX‐512 protocol.
The SM-RS485 is provided with a 3‐position 5.08mm pluggable terminal block for easy field wiring. The terminals include D- (data minus), D+ (data plus), and COM (common).
Additionally, an LED indicator on the module provides at‐a‐glance operational status.
