Wiring elongation between Roboteq MDC2460 & PC using Moxa TCC-80I

Hi, Roboteq team!

I want to make the length of the cables between Roboteq MDC 2460 and my PC up to 100 meters and I have 2 Moxa TCC-80I converters which should help me.
These converters can turn RS-232 to RS-485 and backwards. So, I have this situation:
MDC 2460 ---(RS-232)--- Moxa TCC-80I ---(RS-485)--- Moxa TCC-80I ---(RS-232)--- PC with Roborun
Unfortunatelly, Roborun shows me just some wrong symbols - manny question symbols and so on.

Maybe you have come across this or similar situation? Could you advice anything?

Thank you in advance,
Max

This behavior sounds very typical of what happens to many serial converters when you are using mismatching baud rates. By defualt, our controllers operate at 115200 baud. Make sure your converter and end device are doing the same. You can also change the baud rate of our controllers with the command ^RSBR.
