Programmable Converters
We offer three converters which can manipulate the data stream, using a user-developed program.
The KDE485 is a C programmable converter with serial, Ethernet and USB connectivity and analog I/O features. The development kit is free and license-free.
The PPC Programmable Protocol Converter has four serial ports which are RS232 but can be field-changed to RS422/485. It is programmed in Pascal (built-in) or C (a compiler purchased separately).
The KD485-PROG has two serial ports which are factory configured with any combination of RS232, RS422/485, or 20mA loop (TTY). It is programmed in C, with a compiler purchased separately.
KK Systems also offer a custom programming service.

KDE485
£129.00 As low as: £122.55The KDE485 is a C user-programmable protocol converter with many features aimed at modern factory automation and other professional and industrial applications.
It offers 2xRS232 RS422 2wRS485 serial ports and extensive connectivity features via Ethernet (TCP/IP), USB (VCP/CDC, MSC), optional ARINC429, and an optional isolated 16-bit sensor interface supporting PT100, PT1000, thermocouple and other sensors.
Custom software development is supported via a powerful license-free STM Cube IDE development environment which is preconfigured to minimise the learning curve.

KDE485 GPS-NTP
£253.00 As low as: £240.35KDE485 GPS-NTP is a version of the KDE485 which is preconfigured to act as a GPS to NTP time server.
This provides a time source for a LAN which does not have internet access for security reasons. -
KDE485 OPTION GPS
£124.00 As low as: £117.80KDE485 OPTION GPS is a GPS receiver PCB which fits internally into the KDE485.
This option involves a mounting kit and is normally factory installed. -
KDE485 OPTION 22 BIT ADC
£69.00 As low as: £65.55KDE485 OPTION 22 BIT ADC is a PCB which fits internally into the KDE485.
This option involves a mounting kit and is normally factory installed. -
KD485-PROG
£195.00 As low as: £185.25This interface converter is similar to the KD485-ADE with the addition of a 32kbyte EEPROM into which application specific data conversion programs can be loaded. It is typically used for protocol conversion applications. A MODBUS RTU SLAVE library is available to speed up the development of custom Modbus RTU converters.
Port 1 is RS232. Port 2 is RS422 or RS485.
