Introduction
The Quatech DSE-410D Dual-Port Ethernet Serial device server provides Ethernet to
Serial connections for RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485 devices. The serial ports can be
accessed over a LAN/WAN using “Direct IP Mode”, “Virtual COM Port”, or “Paired
Mode” connection. The 10/100 Mbps Ethernet connection auto-selects 10 BaseT or
100 BaseTX and indicates the type of connection with a bi-color link light.

The Heart Beat Connection ensures reliable communications in Virtual COM port
mode or with paired connections. This feature restores the connections if
communications are temporarily lost at either end due to loss of power or the Ethernet
connection.
The Quatech DSE-410D Manager Software provides easy configuration of Ethernet
and Serial port settings. For configuration, the DSE-410D can be attached to your
network using a standard Cat 5 Ethernet cable, or to the Ethernet port of your
computer using a crossover cable. If a network connection is not available, the DSE-
410D can be configured in Console Mode from an RS-232 port, using a VT100
Terminal Emulation program and an RS-232 crossover cable. HyperTerminal is
included with Windows and is recommended.
The DSE-410D Virtual COM Driver installs a virtual COM port which is viewable in
the Windows Device Manager under “Ports” (COM & LPT). This virtual COM port
provides access to one of the ports on the DSE-410D the same as any other serial port
(legacy, PCI, USB, or PCMCIA) on the computer. Any program running on the
computer and using Windows-based COM ports can access the serial devices attached
to the DSE-410D. The LAN becomes transparent to the serial device and the software
running on the PC.

Communication Modes
The DSE-410D enables communication with serial devices over a LAN or WAN.
Serial devices are no longer limited to a physical connection to the PC COM port.
They can be installed anywhere on the LAN using TCP/IP or UDP/IP
communications. This will allow traditional Windows PC software access to serial
devices anywhere on the LAN/WAN network.
Direct IP Mode
Direct IP connections allow applications using TCP/IP or UDP/IP socket programs to
communicate with the asynchronous serial ports on the DSE-410D. In this type of
application the DSE-410D is configured as a TCP or UDP server. The socket program
running on the PC establishes a communication connection with the DSE-410D. The
data is sent directly to and from the serial port on the server.
Virtual COM Mode
Use Install Virtual COM to add a driver that provides a Virtual COM port on the
computer. The new COM port shows up in the Device Manager. Windows programs
using standard Windows API calls are able to interface such Virtual ports. When a
program on the PC opens the new COM port, it connects to the remote serial device
connected to one of the ports on the DSE-410D.
DSE-410D
After connection, the LAN is transparent to the program and serial device.
Applications are able to work just as if the serial device is connected directly to a
physical COM port on the computer. The Virtual COM port software converts the
application’s data into an IP packet, sends it across the network to the DSE-410D,
which converts the IP packet back to serial data and sends the data out the serial port.
To use this mode, the DSE-410D must be set to either TCP/server or UDP/server in
the menu with a designated communication port number. The virtual COM driver is
the TCP or UDP client.

Heart Beat Connection
The Heart Beat Connection provides an extra measure of reliable communications
assurance in Virtual COM Port Mode or Paired (Tunneling) Mode. This feature
restores the TCP connection if communication is temporarily lost at either end due to
loss of power or Ethernet connection.
Without this feature, a device that loses a connection and stops communicating would
not be able to reconnect without human attention to correct the problem. A TCP data
connection can be lost when there is a power failure or temporary loss of an Ethernet
connection on either the client or server.
If a loss occurs, the Heart Beat feature will try to reconnect the TCP data connection
every 5 seconds until communications is established again.
The Heart Beat feature is not available when running in UDP Mode.
Quick Start
This section lists the steps needed to start using the DSE-410D.
Please familiarize yourself with the connections, indicators and switches before
beginning. See chart and diagram on page 7.
There are three ways to configure the DSE-410D for your network and serial devices.
We recommend the first method if using a Windows operating system.
1. Ethernet connection using the Quatech DSE-410D Manager under Windows
2. Ethernet connection using the Telnet VT100 Terminal software
3. RS-232 connection in Console mode using VT100 Terminal software
The DSE-410D can be configured on your network using a standard Cat 5 Ethernet
cable, or to the Ethernet port on your computer using a crossover cable. Use the DSE-
410D Manager utility with Windows or use Telnet for configuration without Windows.
With Console configuration, an RS-232 Crossover (null modem DTE/DTE) cable is
usually needed, as the DSE-410D ports are configured DTE for RS-232. Set the mode
switches to Console mode, (SW 1 - ON, SW 2 - ON, SW 3 - ON) before configuration.
Step 1: Decide which method to use for configuration and operation.
If using the Console mode for setup, refer to the Console mode section, Chapter 9,
and Chapter 5, then power up the DSE-410D.

Step 2: Attach the DSE-410D to your network’s switch or hub using a standard Cat 5
Ethernet cable, or directly to the LAN port on your computer using a crossover cable.
You can connect your serial devices now if needed.
If using Telnet for setup, refer to the Console mode section, Chapter 9, and
Chapter 5, then power up the DSE-410D.
Step 3: If using Windows, install the Quatech DSE-410D Manager software on the
configuring Computer.
Step 4: Power on the DSE-410D and check the status lights.
Step 5: Start the Quatech DSE-410D Manager from your program menu.
Step 6: Select Search to find the DSE-410D on your network.
Step 7: When found, Double-Click the DSE-410D to bring up the Server Properties
Configuration Screen. If more than one DSE-410D shows up, select the one that
matches the Default IP Address shown on the bottom of the DSE-410D (usually
192.168.0.1).
Step 8: Refer to the Server Properties section, Chapter 5 for details on the
Configuration parameters for each field. Configure and then Save/Update.
Step 9: If you want to use Virtual COM ports with Windows, install the Virtual COM
port or ports on each computer requiring access to the DSE-410D.

RS-485 Mode
The RS-485 mode supports the Transmit and Receive Channels using 2-wire half-
duplex operation. The data lines are differential with the Data B line positive relative
to Data A in the Mark state. Ground provides a common mode reference. Refer to the
Pin-out table for connections.
Selecting Internal RS-485 Bias Resistors
You can select RS-485 Receiver Biasing from the DSE-410D if your network doesn’t
supply any. Remove the two side cover screws, slide the cover off, then set the two
bias jumpers (shown open) to enable biasing (shorting).
RS-422 Mode
The RS-422 mode supports 4 channels with full duplex operation for Receive,
Transmit, RTS (Request To Send) and CTS (Clear To Send). The data lines are in
differential pairs with the B lines positive relative to the A lines. Ground provides a
common mode reference. To use handshaking, Flow Control must be set to RTS/CTS
during configuration. Refer to the Pin-out table for connections.
RS-232 Mode
The RS-232 mode supports eight channels plus Signal Ground and is configured as
DTE, like a computer. Signals are single-ended and referenced to Ground. To use
handshaking, Flow Control must be set to RTS/CTS during Configuration. Refer to
the Pin-out table for connections.
Default Setting
Use this mode to reset the original factory default settings when powered on.

Upgrade Mode
You can install newly revised firmware for the DSE-410D using RS-232 connections
from a PC, through either the DSE-410D Manager or through the Virtual COM port.
See Chapter 8 for details.
Console Mode
The Console mode provides access to the configuration menu using RS-232
connections. Connect a null modem crossover cable between the Multi-Interface port
and one of the computer’s RS-232 serial ports. The DSE-410D Serial ports are wired
as DTE, like a computer, using DB9M connectors, so a crossover cable must be used
to connect to another DTE port.
In Console mode the default serial port settings are: 9600 baud, 8 data bits, No parity,
and 1 stop bit. With Windows, you can use HyperTerminal with VT100 terminal
emulation for Console mode configuration. Use the default settings only if they have
not been changed during a prior installation/configuration. See Chapter 7 for details.

RS-422 Connections
In the RS-422 mode, TXD lines are outputs and RXD lines are inputs. Connect the
TXDB(+) line to the RXDB(+) line of your device, and the TXDA(-) line to the
RXDA(-) line of your device.
If Flow Control is set for RTS/CTS, connect the RTSB(+) line to the CTSB(+) line of
your device and RTSA(-) to CTSA(-) of your device. Connect from CTSB(+) to
RTSB(+) of your device and from CTSA(-) to RTSB(+) of your device.
If connecting to Receive Only RS-422 devices, connect from TXDB(+) and TXDA(-)
to the receive pairs on all your devices.
Ground is signal ground and provides a common mode reference for the RS-422
Receiver and Transmitters.
The RS-422 mode can be used for full duplex 4-wire RS-485 operation provided that
the DSE-410D is acting as a sole master connecting to all the slave devices, and all
slave devices share the Receive signal lines to the master. Set Flow Control for none,
and omit connections to RTS/CTS line pairs.

RS-485 Connections
Some RS-485 devices are marked opposite from the RS-485 standard that defines the
Data B line as positive relative to Data A during a Mark state before enabling the
transmitter, and after transmitting before tri-stating. If the RS-485 devices don’t
respond, try swapping the Data B and Data A lines.
If you want to connect 4-Wire RS-485 devices, you can use the RS-422 Mode
provided that the DSE-410D will be connected as a Master in a single master system.
If you have multiple masters, you cannot use this device because it does not tri-state
the transmitter in RS-422 mode.

Server Name
You can enter a new Server Name of up to 16 characters. If you have more than one
DSE-410D Server on the LAN we recommend that you assign a new name to each.
When the DSE-410D Manager finds DSE-410D Servers on the LAN it displays the
Server name and IP Address allowing the user to distinguish between several DSE-
410D Servers.
Password
Entering a password activates a security feature on the DSE-410D. Once a password
is entered it will be required to access the menu and make changes.
DHCP
DHCP servers are a part of numerous LAN management systems. The DHCP field
has two selections, “Disable” or “Enable”. Select, then Tab to another property.
Telnet/Console: Arrow to the desired selection and select enter.
Disable is the normal/default setting. When enabled, DSE-410D will send a DHCP
request to the DHCP server, which will assign a dynamic IP address, net mask, and
gateway to the DSE-410D. If a DHCP server is not available on the network, the
DSE-410D will time out after 10 seconds and the default values will remain.
IP Address, Netmask, and Gateway Properties
The Network Administrator can provide IP Address, Netmask, and Gateway address
information.
All three fields will have to conform to your LAN for proper operation.
IP Address
Assign a static IP address using this property. A static IP address is retained and used
each time the Server is powered up or starts/restarts. Software or hardware attempting
to access the Server will need to use the static address to access the Server. The
Network Administrator will assign/establish the static address or group of addresses to
be used. The default IP address, such as IP 192.168.0.1, is shown on a label affixed to
the bottom cover.
A dynamic address assigned by the DHCP server may change if the DSE-410D looses
the Ethernet connection or power is removed. The host (client) communication
software requests a connection to the specific IP address of the DSE-410D. If the

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
DHCP reassigns a different IP address, the software will not be able to communicate
with the hardware. We recommend using a static IP address.
Net Mask
The default LAN net mask is configured for a Class C address. The user can change
this if desired. Default is 255.255.255.0
Gateway
The Gateway IP address allows users to access the DSE-410D from outside the LAN.
MAC Address
The MAC address is fixed, not adjustable. It is assigned in the factory. Every Ethernet
device manufactured has it own unique MAC address.
Link Status (Shown in Telnet or Console mode only)
Link status automatically displays the type of Ethernet connection. It will either
display 10 BaseT or 100 BaseTX in full duplex or half duplex. This will depend on
the LAN, switches, and hubs used in the LAN topology.
Server Serial Port (Select 1 or 2)
One port is shown. Make selections for Port 1 (Multi-Interface), then select Port 2
(RS-232) and make selections. Using the DSE-410D Manager, you must click Update
to store settings for that port before changing to the other port. Only the settings for
the port shown are stored. Using Telnet or Console mode, Save stores settings for both
ports.
Baud Rate (Set for each port)
The serial port baud rate on the DSE-410D must match the serial baud rate of the
connected device unless using Virtual COM mode. In Virtual COM mode, the
software program will establish serial settings. Use the arrow keys to change the
setting to the desired baud rate.
Data/Parity/Stop (Set for each port)
Set this to match the data format used by the device connected when the Virtual COM
mode is not being used. Telnet/Console: Tab to the Data/Parity/Stop field and arrow
to the desired selection.

Flow Control (Set for each port)
The Flow Control setting must match the requirements of the device connected. Tab
to the Flow Control field and arrow to None or RTS/CTS. Select None when setting
DSE-410D Port 1 as RS-485 or 4-wire RS-422.
Connection Mode (Set for each port)
The Connection mode has two options, Client and Server.
Select the Server mode to use a Virtual COM port or to use a TCP or UDP Socket
program.
When set as Client, the console mode or DSE-410D Manager software must be used
to access the menu.
TCP/UDP Protocol (Set for each port)
Select TCP or UDP protocol. If the application does not require a UDP connection,
select TCP. TCP guarantees reliable communication with error checking. TCP is
Transmission Control Protocol and UDP is User Datagram Protocol.
TCP/UDP Port (Set for each port)
This sets the port number for connection. The default port numbers are 4000 and 4001.
In all modes of operation, Direct IP or Virtual Com, the port number set in the DSE-
410D menu must match the Virtual COM and socket software port settings.
As an example, the Virtual COM default setting is TCP/UDP Port 4000. If the port #
property is changed to 4001, then the Virtual COM TCP/UDP Port will have to be
changed to 4001. The DSE-410D Manager or Telnet/Console configuration can
change the setting for the hardware. The Virtual COM port setting can be changed
within the Device Manager of the computer in which it is installed.
Remote IP Address (Set for each port)
This is a security feature activated by entering the IP address of the desired client. The
DSE-410D will only communicate with the listed IP address and all other requests for
connection will be filtered out. The DSE-410D is set to TCP or UDP Server in
Connection Mode to use this feature.

Installing Virtual Com Port
The Virtual COM Port software enables Windows-based applications to use the serial
port on the DSE-410D Server as a COM port or to use standard Windows API calls
for COM port access.
Running the Install Virtual COM port software adds a DSE-410D (COM#) port to the
computer that shows up in the Device Manager. The COM number can be selected
from a list of available numbers.
For example, in a computer already having a COM1 and COM2, COM3 to COM 254
are available for the DSE-410D. The virtual COM port looks like a standard COM
port to most Windows-based applications, which allows the software to open a
connection with the serial port located anywhere on the LAN. When using the virtual
COM port, the DSE-410D is configured as a TCP or UDP Server.
1. Select Install Virtual COM from your Programs list next to the DSE-410D
Manager (Start/Programs/Quatech/SDS/DSE-410D/Install Virtual Com).

10 Appendix A: RS-232, RS-422 Loopback Connections
For Transmit and Receive loopback, connect only those lines.
When Flow Control setting on the Serial device server is set for RTS/CTS, those lines
must be looped. Usually DTR and DSR must also be looped. The Flow Control setting
for the program must match the Server settings. The CD connection is needed by
some terminal programs to simulate Carrier.
The RS-485 Connections are half duplex, either Receive or Transmit, so another half
