LAVA ESL RS232 8-DB9 Cabled Eight Ethernet-to-Serial Remote Ports

LAVA ESL RS232 8-DB9 Cabled Eight Ethernet-to-Serial Remote PortsThe LAVA ESL RS232 8-DB9 cabled eight ethernet-to-serial remote ports

is ideal for POS systems, security systems, industrial automation, building automation, or any application using RS-232 devices, LAVA Ether-Serial Links provide serial ports that are network-enabled and simple to install, configure, and control.

 

Any serial device can send its information to an Ether-Serial Link, which then places that information on the Ethernet.

 

The serial ports of the LAVA Ether-Serial RS-232 8-DB9 Cabled look and act precisely like they are built into your computer: they appear right alongside other serial ports in Windows' Device Manager.

Extend serial connections across any distance, including the Internet; or access and control serial ports across a network as simply as if they were inside the PC beside you. By assigning TCP port and IP addresses to serial ports, Ether-Serial Links make it possible for a single PC to control many serial devices, or for many PCs to control a single serial device.

 

Simple installation
The software behind LAVA Ether-Serial Links makes installation effortless. LAVA Ether Link Manager makes the serial ports appear as native COM ports, which enables Windows (and any applications running on the PC) to 'see' those ports as internal ones, regardless of whether they are 10 meters or 10,000 kilometers away. This makes it possible to find, connect and configure LAVA Ether-Serial Links anywhere on a network segment in minutes.

 

Flexible Configuration
Whether you need to change serial port settings or upload new firmware, the LAVA Discovery Protocol makes remote configuration possible through a browser-based interface, Telnet interface, or the LAVA Ether Link Manager.

 

Reliable DHCP Connectivity
When the IP address of an Ether-Serial Link's remote port changes (typically by being reassigned by a DHCP Server), the device does not lose connection with the client PC. LAVA's sophisticated port binding technology can also associate a remote serial port with a MAC address or a user-specified name. Reliable connections are maintained between client stations and the LAVA Ether-Serial Link's remote ports, eliminating the need to manually update IP addresses for remote devices, wherever they may be.

 

Applications
LAVA Ether-Serial Links are perfect serial device servers for Point-of-Sale, factory automation, data collection, building automation, security, health care, and logistics connectivity. Anywhere a remote serial port is needed, a LAVA Ether-Serial Link can fit the bill.

Serial Port Mode Description
Driver (default) Serial port is enumerated on the host computer as a local COM port. Software on the PC can access the ESL ports as normal COM ports.
Applications: General serial port access from software running on a PC.
Raw Server Raw TCP connection to an ESL port. The physical port on the ESL becomes a network resource with an IP address and port number.
Applications: Remote monitoring, security systems.
Raw Client Raw TCP connection to an ESL port. The physical port on the ESL is configured to connect to a pre-defined IP address and port number.
Applications: Remote device control, remote polled monitoring.
Data Connect Combines Raw Client and Raw Server modes. The ESL will either initiate a TCP connection when activity is detected at the serial port, or it will receive TCP packetized serial data from the network port when an outside client connects to it.
Applications: Provides a serial-to-serial communication link; can extend serial cables with an Ethernet connection.
RFC 2217 ESL port sends port configuration commands and serial data to the ESL using RFC 2217 framework for serial port control over Telnet.
Applications: UNIX systems and other platforms that have RFC 2217 Telnet capability can access and control the ESL's serial port.
Ethernet Modem Provides a standard "AT" command interface for communicating with devices over Ethernet, as well as control commands for the ESL. An ESL can "dial" an IP address and TCP port; incoming TCP connections are handled under AT command set rules.
Applications: Remote console management, POS modem replacement.
RAS Server The serial port of the RAS client device is attached to the serial port of the ESL. A user-configured IP address is assigned to RAS client.
Applications: Windows CE embedded systems, Palm type units, or other portable data acquisition devices that may need access to a TCP/IP-Ethernet environment, and have PPP capability, but do not have an Ethernet port.
