I was thinking about an network of ds2480
Could we implement something like
computer <=> rs485 <=> rs232 <=> ds2480
rs232 <=> ds2480
we will need a rs485 <=> rs232 converter, or a rs485<=>i2c converter
(using i2c), we will need an network protocol too
i was thinking about
DEVICE.FUNCTION.DATALENGTH.DATA.CHECKSUM (from DEVICE to DATA)
(1 byte).(1 byte).(1 byte).(0-255 bytes).(1 or 2 bytes)
function could be
write
read
i2c functions (reset and others..)
we will need an microcontroler conversor, i could build an serial<=>i2c
(i have some pic16f77A here, have 1 usart and 1 i2c and many I/O (32pins))
what you think? thnkx
