The Innotech GenII NAP is a bi-directional multiple protocol converter between RS232 and RS485, and IRDA (Infra-Red Data Association) and RS485. It is intended to act as an intermediate translator between either a computer’s serial port or Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC’s IRDA port and an Innotech controller network.

Provides a 10K thermistor in the same enclosure.
All wire connections by removable terminals.
LED indication of network traffic.
Baud rate selection of 9600 and 57600.

The Innotech GenII NAP converts both RS232 and IRDA signals to the RS485 format. It is designed to work with a Computer for a RS232 connection or a Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC for an IRDA connection. In this way it can be used to access an Innotech controller network using either a computer or a hand held Compaq iPAQ Pocket PC.

A 10 K Ohm thermistor is also situated in the enclosure. This may be used as a remote temperature sensor by a controller, as part of an Innotech controller network.

Isolated RS485 circuitry prevents voltage irregularities on the communication cabling from damaging the GenII NAP or a computer, and reduces the likelihood of communication errors. The Innotech GenII NAP is designed as a permanently situated protocol translator.

Enclosure/Mounting
The Innotech GenII NAP is enclosed in a standard Innotech sensor wall enclosure. It is intended to be mounted on a wall at approximately eye level. The cables should feed back into the wall cavity and to be connected to the Innotech controller network.

Functionality
The Innotech GenII NAP communications channel is activated by receiving data either via the RS232 or IRDA ports. This data is then translated and transmitted on the RS485 network.

Any data received on the RS485 network is converted to RS232 or IRDA protocols for the Computer or Pocket PC. Only one of the available RS232 or IRDA channels can be used at a time.
