Configured for serial data exchange in STARDOM controller platforms, the Yokogawa NFLR121-S50 (NFLR121-S50 Serial Communication Module) provides direct physical/electrical execution of RS-422 and RS-485 communication protocols.
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|
| Model | NFLR121-S50 |
| Brand | Yokogawa |
| Origin | Japan |
| Weight | 1.0 kg |
| Dimensions | 130 mm x 50 mm x 30 mm |
| Operating Temp | Consult controller environment manual |
| Power Consumption | Refer to STARDOM backplane power budget |
| Interface Type | RS-422 / RS-485 |
| Protocol Support | Modbus and subsystem integration |
The module facilitates data transmission between the STARDOM controller and external field devices, maintaining strictly defined protocol timings for RS-422/RS-485 interfaces. To ensure signal integrity across long-distance serial links, the design incorporates channel-to-channel isolation that prevents ground loops and cross-talk during asynchronous communication. This hardware configuration is calibrated to handle the electrical requirements of Modbus subsystem integration, ensuring consistent frame delivery within the controller network architecture.
Q: Does this module support hot-swapping while the STARDOM controller is active?
A: Online insertion and removal (hot-swapping) capabilities are subject to the specific STARDOM rack and firmware revision. Refer to the controller system documentation to verify if the backplane power management allows for live module exchange.
Q: Is external termination required for the RS-485 interface?
A: Yes, standard industrial practice for RS-485 communication requires 120 Ohm termination resistors at both ends of the physical transmission line to minimize signal reflections.
