Short description: WAGO's RS-232/SMI interface module offers a standard interface to SMI LoVo-compliant electrical drives. The interface represents a purely physical level conversion between the standard RS-232 interface and the SMI LoVo signal level. The interface module operates up to 16 SMI drives. The entire SMI range of functions can be used. The special WAGO-I/O-PRO function blocks communicate between applications and SMI LoVo drives. These function blocks support both single and group addressing, as well as status monitoring. Both 750 Series Programmable Fieldbus Controllers' RS-232 onboard interfaces and 750-650/003-000 or 753-650/003-000 Serial RS-232 Interfaces can connect to the SMI LoVo Interface Module. The module must be supplied with an external 24 VDC power source. RS-232 and 24 V power supply are electrically isolated from the SMI LoVo connections. There is no electrical isolation between power supply and RS-232. The module is DIN-35-rail mountable. Notes on SMI: SMI stands for “Standard Motor Interface,” a standard interface for electrical drives. SMI was developed to connect drives with integrated electronic circuitry for applications in shutters and sunshade systems.
