Grounding the Device Server
WARNING
Transition Networks
Be sure to disconnect power before installing and wiring the Device Server.
Failure to observe this warning could result in an electrical shock.
Wiring
The following wiring considerations are recommended:
considerations
• Use separate paths to route wiring for power and device data cables. If power
wiring and device data cables must cross make sure that the wires are
perpendicular at the intersection point.
• Do not run signal or communications wiring and power wiring in the same wire
conduit. To avoid interference, wires with different signal characteristics route
separately.
• Use the type of signal transmitted through a wire to determine which wires should
be kept separate. The rule of thumb is wiring that shares similar electrical
characteristics can be bundled together.
• Keep input and output wiring separated.
• Label the wiring to all devices in the system for clarity.
CAUTION
The Device Server must be mounted to a well-grounded surface. Failure to
observe this caution could result in EMI problems.
Device server
grounding
The Device Server can eliminate the effects of noise due to electromagnetic
interference (EMI) via proper grounding. Always run the ground connection from
the ground screw to a grounding surface before connecting DC power. See Figure 5.

Connecting power to the Device Server
Redundant
power
Dual (redundant) power inputs can be connected simultaneously to live DC power
sources. See Figure 6. If one power source fails, the other live source acts as a
backup, and automatically supplies the Device Server with power.
Figure 6: Redundant Power Connections
IMPORTANT
• Power is supplied through an external DC power source. Check the Technical
Specification section for information about the DC power input voltage.
• The Device Server does not include a power switch; therefore, plugging a wired
and active terminal-block plug into its terminal block will immediately power UP
the unit.

Description
Server/Client Type
Defines whether the Device Server is acting as a
server or a client. In Device Server Mode, this
setting will always be Server. In Converter Mode,
this setting can be either Server or Client.
Remote IP
In Converter Mode, enter the IP address of the
remote device. This field is NOT USED in Device
Server Mode.
TCP Port Number
Device Server mode (DS): the TCP port number is
the number that the Device Server uses to listen for
connections; also, other devices must use this port
to contact the Device Server.
Converter mode: both converters use the TCP port
number to communicate with the host.
Connection Idle Time
This setting only applies to Converter Mode. The
time value (in seconds) is the maximum time that
the TCP port will remain open with no activity.
Once the time value is reached, the Device server
closes the port to prevent the port from remaining
open indefinitely. This field is NOT USED in
Device Server mode.
DS/CR Modes
Device server (DS) mode, also know as TCP/IP
mode, is used to connect a serial device to a host via
an Ethernet network. This mode allows using an
existing COM-port-based software platform across
an existing Ethernet LAN. See Figure 22.

Serial IP redirect software description
COM port
usage
The Serial/IP Redirector Software adds "virtual" COM ports to Windows operating
systems. Similar to regular COM ports that allow PC applications to use local serial
ports, Serial/IP COM ports allow PC applications to use the serial port on the Device
Server. Because Serial/IP COM ports work like regular COM ports, PC applications
do not have to be changed to use the Device Server through the Serial/IP Redirector.
Operating
environment
The Serial/IP Redirector software runs as a kernel-level device driver in the
Windows operating system. This means that Serial/IP COM ports are available to PC
applications at all times, even if no user is logged in. The Serial/IP Redirector is a
high-performance kernel-mode driver with a small “footprint,” modest memory
requirements and low overhead. The Serial/IP applet in the Windows control panel
configures Serial/IP COM ports and displays their activity.
Configuration
wizard
The Serial/IP Redirector software detects and uses the specific protocol supported by
the Device Server. When configuring Serial/IP COM port, use the Serial/IP
Configuration Wizard to verify immediately that the Serial/IP Redirector can
communicate with the Device Server over the network.
Networked
The networked pieces fit together in the following manner:
device server
Stage
Description
A.
Install the Device Server on the network and connect a device to its serial
port.
B.
C.
Configure the Device Server so that its serial port is available to the
network via TCP/IP.
Install the Serial/IP Redirector software on the PC that will use the device
attached to the Device Server.
D.
E.
Configure the Serial/IP Redirector software to create a virtual COM port.
Specify the IP address of a Device Server and the TCP port number that
provides access to its serial port.
F.
In the PC application, change settings to use the Serial/IP COM port
instead of the local COM port.
G.
Thereafter, the PC application can use the serial port on the Device Server
instead of local serial ports.

Getting started and software pre-installations considerations
Pre-installation Supported platforms:
considerations
• Intel-compatible PCs with 32-bit Pentium-class processor
• At least 4 megabytes free space on the boot drive
• Windows XP sp1 or sp2, Server 2003, 2000, NT 4.0 sp6, 98/95/Me, Microsoft
.NT/2000/2003 Terminal Server, Citrix MetaFrame Access Suite
• VMware
Software requirements:
• Windows Installer 2.0 or later: This software is included in Windows XP and
later, and is available for NT 4.0, 2000 and 95 from the Microsoft Download
Center. It is also available for Windows 98 in Internet Explorer 5.5
• Internet Explorer 4.0 or later (version 5.5 or later for Windows 98)
• For Windows 95: Microsoft Windows Socket 2 update
Network requirements:
• A TCP/IP network connection from the local computer to the serial Device
Server.
• The throughput and performance of the network connection must exceed the
requirements of the application in total. (An Ethernet local area network will
easily meet this requirement.)
• If firewalls are in the network path to the serial Device Server, they must allow
TCP connections to the server on the TCP port number(s) on which the server
provides its devices. If used, this includes Windows XP service-pack 2 firewall.
