RS485 Designer's Kit (Lin part number: RS232KIT) Includes:
RS485 to RS232 Converter Card
An Optical Sensor
Red Switch Push Button
3-Pin Cable
USB485 Designer's Kit (Lin p/n: USBKIT) Includes:
• USB485 Converter Card
• An Optical Sensor
• Red Switch Push Button
• 6 foot USB Cable
Each R356 comes with the following cables (Lin part number 090-00018, 090-00096, and 090-00153):
4-pin cable | DB-15 cable with white 3-pin connector | 6-pin cable
The R356 is a fully intelligent controller and driver in one. Commands can be issued from any serial terminal program, such as HyperTerminal, or from Lin Engineering’s Graphical User Interface, LinControl. (have LinControl link to the download section)
Commands are simple and intuitive. This communication is compatible with devices that use the Cavro DT or OEM protocol.
The R356 controller is also capable of standalone operating with no PC. It can execute a pre-programmed string of commands upon Power up. Commands include nested loops, wait statements, halt commands, software selectable currents, speeds, acceleration, microstepping, and more.
