VIP-411 / 412 "SmartAe" Switch Closure to RS-232 Serial Encoder
VIP-411 / 412
The "SmartWye" & "SmartAe" series of PS/2 & USB keyboard encoders 

Description:

Vetra's USB and PS/2 PC Keyboard Encoders / Emulators make it easy to interface custom control panels, switches, and keypads to a PC's keyboard port by converting contact closures to standard PC keyboard scan codes. In addition to the connected keypads or switches, on PS/2 models, a standard PC keyboard may also be connected, and can be plugged in or out anytime. All models of the PC Keyboard Encoder / Emulator utilize Vetra's advanced keyboard emulation technology, which provides error free boot up to the connected PC and operates transparently with all PC's, PC operating systems, and applications.

There are two Keyboard Encoder product families:

  • Models USB-311, USB-312, VIP-312 and VIP-313 are the "SmartWye"™ series of USB or PS/2 PC keyboard encoders. They are available in a variety of standard models which convert from 1 to 144 discrete or matrix switch contact closures to USB or PS/2 PC Keyboard Scan codes. These USB or PS/2 PC keyboard encoders are available as OEM printed circuit board assemblies only. Custom footprint (PCB dimensions and connector locations) and custom code mapping is available at extra cost. For customs, please contact us for a quote.
  • Models VIP-411 and VIP-412 are the "SmartAe"™ series of RS-232 Serial ASCII encoders. They convert 1 to 128 discrete or matrix switch contact closures to RS-232 Serial ASCII codes. Both the VIP-411 and VIP-412 come standard as a stand-alone unit in a housing, but are also available as OEM printed circuit board assemblies, for applications where a housing is not desired.
