C-Bus PC Interface

C-Bus 5500PC
Clipsal CBus PC Interface

The PC Interface is a C-Bus device designed to provide an isolated, bi-directional, interface between serial RS232 and the C-Bus network. Through the PC Interface, C-Bus units can be programmed, commands can be issued and activity on the C-Bus network can be monitored.

The PC Interface uses a standard RS232 serial port connection and allows an external device with RS232 output to interface to the C-Bus. Installation of the PC Interface on the C-Bus network requires connection to the Category 5 unshielded twisted pair network cable. The connection to a personal computer is via the 9-pin D type serial connector or RJ45 connectors located on the unit.
