01 / PRODUCT CORE
A Serial Link Built
for Control Architecture
 

ALR121-S01 provides two serial communication ports using the RS-422/RS-485 electrical interface. The module is intended for integration with Yokogawa field-control and bus-node architectures where serial data exchange with external subsystems is required.

The interface supports point-to-point operation through RS-422 and multipoint operation through RS-485, making the module suitable for different serial network topologies without changing the basic module role.

01
Dual Serial Ports
Two RS-422/RS-485 communication interfaces are provided by the ALR121 architecture.
02
Flexible Topology
RS-422 supports point-to-point communication; RS-485 supports multipoint communication.
03
Half-Duplex
The communication function is specified as half-duplex with start-stop synchronization.
04
Extended Reach
Maximum transmission distance is specified as 1200 m total extended length.

03 / SYSTEM RELATION
Where ALR121-S01 Fits

ALR121 is the RS-422/RS-485 member of the ALR serial communication family. Within Yokogawa control architectures, it provides the serial interface between the control-side node and compatible external subsystems.

ALR111
RS-232C Path
 

The ALR111 uses RS-232C and is intended for point-to-point serial communication.

 
TARGET MODULE
ALR121-S01
 

RS-422/RS-485 interface with point-to-point RS-422 and multipoint RS-485 connection capability.

ALR121 FAMILY
Serial Integration
 

Communication functions include FA-M3, Modbus, MELSEC-A, YS, SLC500 and PLC-S communication according to the applicable configuration.

Architecture Note
The two ports of a communication module select the same communication function; different communication functions cannot be assigned independently to the two ports.

06 / BUYER QUESTIONS
ALR121-S01 FAQ
Can ALR121-S01 be used when the existing network requires RS-485 multipoint communication?
Yes. ALR121 supports RS-485 multipoint connection, while RS-422 is used for point-to-point communication. This distinction is important when matching the module to the physical topology of the existing serial network.
Is ALR121-S01 suitable when the serial device is located far from the control node?
The specified maximum transmission distance for ALR121 is up to 1200 m in total extended length. Actual installation performance still depends on the selected communication method, wiring arrangement and connected equipment.
Which transmission settings should be checked before ordering ALR121-S01 for an existing subsystem?
The serial configuration should be checked against the intended communication function, including transmission speed, character length, stop-bit setting, parity and transmission code. ALR121 supports 1200 to 38400 bps depending on the selected communication function.
Can the two ALR121-S01 ports be configured for different communication functions?
No. The ALR121 communication module selects one communication function, so the two ports use the same communication function rather than independently selecting different functions.
What should buyers verify when replacing an ALR121-S01 in an operating Yokogawa node?
Verify the exact ALR121 variant, the host node arrangement, the intended communication function, serial wiring configuration and environmental conditions before replacement. For ALR121-S01 installations, the applicable ambient-temperature condition is 0 to 60°C.
