Features
Multiple Electrical Interface (MEI)
MEI adapters (model numbers ending with “-400”) are shipped with a
factory default of all serial ports set for RS-232 connections. Each
port can be individually configured for RS-232, RS-422/485 full-
duplex, or RS-422-485 half-duplex operation.
Understanding the LEDs
The LEDs inform you of the configuration of the adapter’s serial
ports. Each serial port has one associated LED located on the back
panel to the right of the port’s DB-9 connector. The following table
lists the possible states of the LEDs and their meaning.

The IND option provides essential protection for reliable use in an
industrial environment. Each communication line has a surge
suppressor capable of sustaining up to 40-A, 20-μs peak transient
surges, a clamping voltage of 30 V (15.1 V for 200/300 units), and a
peak energy dissipation of 0.1 Joules.
