I was wondering if there is a "black box" which converts RS-485 signals
to RS-232 signals for bidirectional traffic?  If so, please let me know
of any sources for it.  Thanks in advance for your help.

Try the following:  

	B & B Electronics 
	1500 Boyce Memorial Dr.
	Ottawa, IL  61350 
	815-434-0846 
or: 
	Black Box Corp. 
	Box 12800 
	Pittsburgh, PA  15241 
	412-746-5530 . 

B & B has less selection, but excellent service and reasonable prices.  

Black Box charges way too much, but has a wide variety of protocol conversion 
equipment for both hardware AND software protocols.  

I have used an RS-422 to RS-232 converter from B & B, and am pleased with it. 

	Regards,
