By converting to EIA-485, the RSC-1 allows up to 128 Morningstar products to communicate on the same communication bus and over much greater distances.
Typical configurations include:
Networking several TriStar and/or TriStar-MPPT controllers
Adding Morningstar’s PC Meterbus Adapters (MSC) for use with an RJ-11 port in multi-device networks.
Adding Morningstar’s Relay Driver to a network
Integrating any compatible Morningstar product into an existing EIA-485 network, such as those used by industrial control or SCADA systems.
