Overview
The G3 proprietary expansion slot provides a high speed, parallel architecture that extends the functionality and flexibility of the G3 series HMI. This approach allows the G3 series to evolve concurrently with the latest advances in communications and standards, without sacrificing performance. This high bandwith channel has significantly greater throughput when compared to the traditional (external) serial gateway approach.
The G3RS option card is easily installed by removing the rear cover of your G3 operator interface, attaching the card using three screws and connecting a single cable. Adding this card gives the operator interface another RS232 port and RS422/485 port. It is built with isolation to protect equipment from potentially harmful ground loops, and provides high speed RS232, RS422, RS485, and DH485 communications for many different types of hardware.
