NM 9010 from ADD Engineering The NETmate combines dedicated communication hardware with on board data processing software to provide an efficient means of interfacing asynchronous Data Terminal Equipment to synchronous Data Communication Equipment By doing this the NETmate off load communications overhead from your Data Terminal Equipment s CPU for optimum system performance 6 Functional Description Chapter 1 The NETmate is a device that establishes the interface from standard asynchronous serial ports with an RS 232 electrical interface the ones which are usually standard on computer systems to standard as well as non standard synchronous systems with an RS 232 electrical interface non standard in terms of Commercially Of The Shelf equipment The NETmate can interface a single synchronous system to a single asynchronous system Apart from the configurable Universal mode the NETmate also provides a Link 1 a Link 11B and a transparent interface mode To provide flexibility and create a wide adaptation level within these different modes the NETmate has a number of parameters that can be altered to be able to interface to specific military and commercial protocols Synchronisation word bit encoding and bit stripping are only a couple of these parameters Though the NETmate is designed from a total new concept a lot of its functionality is comparable to that of the standard UCC SyncMate and the ClockMate The NETm
