DL2000-KFX: DF1 to DH+ Controller


The DL2000-KFX contains two serial protocols and is software configurable for either standard DF1 or bridging modes. Standard DF1 mode is used to provide a serial interface to DH+ and is suitable as an alternative to A-B's serial interfaces to DH+. Bridging mode is designed to enable the DL2000-KFX to be used in pairs to bridge local and remote DH+ networks.

DL2000 User's Guide.
DL2000-KFX Application Notes.

[Chart]This standard DF1/DH+ serial protocol available in the DL2000-KFX is also contained in the
DL2000-KFR and the DL2000-K2F products. When configured for standard DF1 mode the DL2000-KFX provides an economical, compact alternative to Allen-Bradley's 1770-KF2. This protocol converts A-B DF1 serial protocol to DH+ network protocol and provides a serial interface to DH+ for computers, modems and OEM equipment. Applications include PLC programming and graphical user interfaces (GUIs and MMIs). The DL2000-KFX will interface all PCs, Macintosh, desk-tops and portables to DH+. Its size and portability makes it especially convenient for use with notebook PCs.
