Product Description
Interactive Technologies SM-SBUS-5W 5-Wire Station Bus Smart Module
Overview
Smart modules add additional functionality and connectivity to select CueServer 3 models by plugging them into an available module slot.
Use SM-SBUS-5W modules to add the ability to connect to 5-Wire CueStation button stations (such as Mystique or Ultra stations).
Additionally, the SM-SBUS-5W module also supports alternate protocols including DMX and RS-485 serial. In DMX mode, this module communicates with DMX-based lighting instruments. In RS-485 mode, the module can be used to communicate via RS-485 serial protocols.
The SM-SBUS-5W module provides data isolation and protection to help prevent failures caused by ground loops, voltage mismatches, power surges or electrostatic events. The module also provides software-controlled and over-current protected DC power output for the connected stations. A user-selectable termination switch allows configuration of the module to be able to support up to two home- runs of stations. Also, an LED indicator on the module provides at-a- glance operational status.
