Overview

The CP-132UL and CP-132UL-I 2-port universal PCI boards are designed for industrial automation applications that require a long distance, multi-point, PC-based data acquisition solution.
On-chip Automatic Data Direction Control for precision RS-485 communication

RS-485 communication requires precise timing control to enable and disable the line driver. The Moxa Turbo Serial Engine™ chip that powers the CP-132UL/UL-I boards comes with on-chip ADDC®, which makes RS-485 as easy to use as RS-232.
RS-485 multidrop for up to 31 devices within 1.2 km

The CP-132UL/UL-I universal PCI boards have 2 RS-422/485 serial ports, each of which can achieve data rates up to 921.6 Kbps. In RS-485 mode, the board can connect up to 31 daisy-chained RS-485 devices within a range of 1.2 km. For long distance RS-485 communication, choose the CP-132UL-I model, which comes with 2 KV optical isolation protection to prevent equipment damage.

 

Top Serial Performance

Moxa’s 20-plus years of experience in serial board design is now concentrated in a new high performance serial data transmission chip. The Turbo Serial Engine™ chip provides serial boards with a 128-byte FIFO, on-chip hardware and software flow control, and burst data mode. Thanks to the Turbo Serial Engine™, Moxa is able to offer the world’s best performing smart serial boards.

 

Drivers Provided for Windows, Linux, and Unix

Moxa continues to support a wide variety of operating systems, and the CP-132UL/UL-I boards are no exception. Reliable Windows COM and Linux/Unix TTY drivers are provided for all Moxa boards, and other operating systems, such as WEPOS, are also supported for embedded integration.
