ACT-IR100SL and IR100SL-M User’s Manual 2. Overview The ACT-IR100S-L/LM is a IrDA-Ready intelligent adapter. This enables the host system with IrDA communication capabilities. The host system may be a serial printer, a modem, an industrial controller, a data collector, a medical instrument, or any other device, that may benefit from being IrDA enabled. The interface between ACT-IR100S-L/LM and the host is via a traditional asynchronous serial data port (RS232C). Figure 2.1 shows the s

ACT-IR100SL and IR100SL-M User’s Manual 3. Applications 3.1 Embedded IrDA protocol stack The mandatory IrDA protocol layers, IrLAP (comply with TEST frame capability requirement) and IrLMP (including IAS) are handled by ACT-IR100S-L/LM, In addition, TinyTP, IrCOMM, IrLPT, IrOBEX transport are all included. The incoming/outgoing IrDA user data payload are buffered and then transferred to/from the host. The baud rates of IrDA traffic and host interface are independent of each other

Note that this is independent of the IrDA connection data rate. Data format is always 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit. Note that this is compatible with end-to-end data format using 7 data bits, parity, and 1 stop bit. That is, the application at both end of the IrDA link may generate and check pari

The physical DTR is used for connection indication. SEL3 has no effect on DTR. When SEL3 close(SEL3=0), DSR is used for connection control. Active DSR permits IrDA connection. Inactive DSR forbids new connection and terminates existing connection. Jumper Ignore DSR SEL3 Descriptions
