Typical applications
The default application is to allow connections to Eurotherm 3216 temperature controllers from devices that don’t natively support its RS-232 Modbus protocol:
Connecting Novocontrol WinDETA/WinChem to Eurotherm 3216 temperature controller
Controlling Eurotherm 3216 temperature controller from BioLogic EC-Lab
- Autolab Vionic Analog temperature control

Detailed Description
The MultiSource is a protocol translator between RS-232 Modbus and a) the Ei-Bisynch protocol or b) analog input/output.
The default application is to allow connections to Eurotherm 3216 temperature controllers from devices that don’t natively support its RS-232 Modbus protocol.
The MultiSource can offer translation between:
- RS-232 ⇄ RS-232 (protocol translation)
- RS-232 ⇄ analog in/out
- Analog ⇄ analog (voltage level conversion)
- Customizable: Based on your wishes the device can be programmed by us for other protocols or applications aside from controlling an Eurotherm 3216.
Please contact us to discuss your specific application!
Additionally, the device features a feedthrough mode that allows direct connections through the two RS-232 ports without disconnecting the cables (up to 115200 baud).
The analog ranges as well as Modbus baud rates are configurable via an included software tool.
