UNO-2174A/2178A User Manual 12
2.3.1 16C550 UARTs with 128-byte standard
Advantech UNO-2174A/2178A comes with OXuPCI952 UARTs con-
taining 128 bytes FIFOs. These upgraded FIFOs greatly reduce CPU
overhead and are an ideal choice for heavy multitasking environments.
2.3.2 RS-422/485 detection
In RS-422/485 mode, UNO-2174A/2178A automatically detects signals
to match RS-422 or RS-485 networks. (No jumper change required)
2.3.3 Automatic Data Flow Control Function for RS-485
In RS-485 mode, UNO-2174A/2178A automatically detects the direction
of incoming data and switches its transmission direction accordingly. So
no handshaking signal (e.g. RTS signal) is necessary. This lets you con-
veniently build an RS-485 network with just two wires. More impor-
tantly, application software previously written for half duplex RS-232
environments can be maintained without modification.
