Connect an OEM-IMU-STIM300 Directly to an OEM7 Receiver

The OEM-IMU-STIM300 can connect directly to an OEM7 receiver using a serial port connection.

The OEM-IMU-STIM300 serial port uses RS-422 signal levels. Since most OEM7 receiver card ports use LVCMOS signal levels, a RS-422 line driver is needed to convert from LVCMOS to RS-422. The exception is COM1 on the OEM729 that operates at RS-232 or RS-422 levels.

The OEM-IMU-STIM300 can also connect to any OEM7 receiver using a MEMS Interface Card (MIC). For information about using a MIC, see MIC Installation.

The interface to the OEM-IMU-STIM300 must provide:

Interface Circuit Required
The STIM TOV output uses 5V logic, but the OEM7 EVENT_IN lines are not 5V tolerant. A circuit to convert from 5V logic to 3.3V levels is required.
