1. DESCRIPTION
CONV32 Interface allows Full Gauge controllers, equipped with serial communication, to be connected to a computer that has a USB serial communications port.
The Interface then takes care of the transformation of the voltage levels used by the computer to the RS-485 voltage levels used by the controllers.
Full Gauge uses a RS-485 network to make the communication between the controllers and Sitrad software more reliable. The communication uses two wires (A and B), allowing the performance of
Half-Duplex communication, where the computer is the master and the controllers are slaves.
2. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

- To disconnect the wire, press the white
button and remove it.
NOTE:
- For the Push In connectors, the maximum
wire gauge is 1.5mm².
- The wires must be coated with solder or use
Rocket Pin terminals with a 0.75mm²
maximum gauge.
The wire must be stripped in
5mm and solder-coated.
Rocket Pin Terminal
- Sitrad Pro allows installing more than one CONV32 Interface version 03 or
higher.
Note: Use the cable supplied with
the converter to connect it to the
computer.
