Ethernet to serial converter: The Ethernet to serial converter can connect your serial devices to the Internet, provide the function of converting serial ports to networks, and convert RS-232/485/422 serial ports into TCP/IP network interfaces. The bidirectional and transparent data transmission between RS-232/485/422 serial port and TCP/IP network interface is realized.The serial port device can immediately have the function of TCP/IP network interface, connect the network for data communication, and expand the communication distance of the serial port device. You can use your computer to store, manage methods and equip machines with remote control from anywhere in the world via the Internet.
Device connection:
First, connect the serial port of the Ethernet to serial converter to the serial port of the device, and connect the RJ45 interface of the Ethernet to serial converter to the router (or directly connect to a PC). Then power up the Ethernet to serial converter.
Configure serial port parameters:
The Ethernet to serial converter can modify the parameters through the Web page. The Ethernet to serial converter is required to modify the parameters through the Web page and must be in the same subnet as the computer. Serial port parameters include: baud rate, data bit, stop bit and check bit.
Configure network parameters:
The Ethernet to serial converter must have an IP, which can be configured as static or obtained through a DHCP server. Configure the working mode of the serial port networking server: including TCP SERVER mode (refers to the computer actively looking for the serial port networking server), TCP CLIENT mode (refers to the server actively looking for the computer) and UDP mode.The purpose of configuring the network parameters is to enable the computer to establish a connection with the networked server smoothly.
Enable virtual serial port:
Because the general user's PC software still opens the serial port to communicate with the device, at this time, because the network is used, a virtual serial port must be installed on the computer. The virtual serial port is responsible for establishing a connection with the Ethernet to serial converter and forwarding the data to the user program that opens the virtual serial port. Run the user equipment communication program and open the virtual serial port.The user application can then communicate with the device.
The Ethernet to serial converter is widely used in access control/attendance, medical applications, remote monitoring, computer room management, and substation management.The Ethernet to serial converter can support the virtual serial port protocol, so that you do not need to change the original PC software, provide transparent data conversion function between the serial port and the Ethernet port, and support DHCP and DNS. Is a full-duplex, packet-free Ethernet to serial converter.
RS232/485/422 three-in-one serial port, RS232, RS485, RS485/422, RS232/485 and other serial port combinations. In addition, there is an Ethernet to serial converter with multiple serial ports and secondary development, which can meet all-round applications.
