USB OPTO

OVERVIEW
The Man3000 USB OPTO Isolator is a USB to SERIAL converter with built in OPTO
Isolation on both the TX and RX channels. The unit will only work with Man3000
hardware.
WIRING
The USB OPTO needs four wires to operate. These are supplied on all of the latest
Man3000 hardware configurations. Some of our older designs that were made before the
invent of the OPTOs do not supply all the connections and may need to be sent to TIS
for modification.
