Interface to RS232 Gauges and Instruments

Connect RS232 devices to your Visor or Palm. Most handhelds have limited serial ports, and their connector shapes are non-standard. Visor®, for instance, only supports 3 of the 9 pins. The DataGet RS232 adapters have a standard DB9 connector to fit your existing cables. All 9 pins work like a PC.  The DataGet RS232 adapter allows you to communicate with your gauge or device in ways even a PC cannot.

Attaches to Scales, Voltmeters, Calipers, DRO's, pH Meters, digital read-out boxes, air gauges, humidity and temperature sensors, GPS systems, HVAC, spectrographs and more.

Works with Fowler, Tesa, Sylvac, Ohaus, Wilson Rockwell, uMaxum and many others.  The DataGet software comes with predefined setups for these gauges and more.

Intelligent interface - a 16-bit microcontroller manages signals to and from the gauge, and decodes gauge output for easier processing on the host computer.

AutoWake™ technology monitors the gauge even when the Palm is turned off.  The DataGet adapter turns the Palm on when you send a measurement from the gauge.

Request data to be sent from the Palm if your gauge or device does not have a data button.  Request readings by toggling DTR, BREAK, or sending a request string.

Low power consumption. Does not require batteries - the Palm supplies the power for the adapter.

Works with standard 9-pin DB9 Serial cables and connectors.

Support for all 9 standard pins:
8 signals (TXD, RXD, CTS, RTS, DTR, DSR, RI, CD), 
4 data lengths (5,6,7,8), 3 stop lengths (1, 1 1/2, 2), 
5 parity options (none, odd, even, one, zero) 

ESD protection against static shock to +/-10kV

Inputs tolerant to +/-25V for older RS232 devices.
DataGet software works to 57.6kbps
