I-PROP
IFSF-LON® from Proprietary Protocol Converter

Up to two alternative interfaces IF 1,2

The module used depends on proprietary Dispenser Calculator interface:

  • RS485

  • Current-Loop (several types)

  • RS232, RS422

  • the others if requested

Dispensers RS485

  • Wayne-Dresser DART protocol

Dispensers Current Loop

  • Schlumberger (ZSR)

  • Tokheim (CoCA EPS 3/5)

  • Mannesmann-Kienzle (ER3/4)

  • Salzkoten (ER3/4)

  • Scheidt-Bachmann (ER3/4 on RS422)

The hardware of the I-PROP converter has been designed as the universal hardware making possible the conversion from proprietary interfaces of the site equipment devices to the interface standard IFSF-LON®. The converter has been equipped with the two asynchronous communication lines on the proprietary interface side. The modular design of the proprietary side enables the alternative physical lines (RS485, Current Loops, RS232, RS422 etc.). The proprietary communication protocol has been implemented to the converter as the special software module for each proprietary device converted to the IFSF-LON standard. The converter I-PROP has been placed to the plastic box enabling the installation to the DIN mounting rail. The converter has been designed for placing to the switchboard panel of the particular device, which communication is converted to the IFSF-LON. I-PROP is not equipped with its own power supply. It is necessary to use the stabilised 5V DC external power supply (recommended) or the power supply from the converted device.
