EKI-1511IL_EKI-1511L_EKI-1511-X
The EKI-1511 Series focus on the entry level device server market, providing an economic solution that is designed to connect RS-232 or RS-422/485 serial devices such as PLC, meters, sensors, and barcode readers to an IP-based Ethernet LAN. This allows nearly any device with a serial port to connect and share an Ethernet network, while also providing various operations such as COM port redirection (Virtual COMport), TCP server, TCP client, and UDP mode. With COM port redirection mode, standard serial operation calls are transparently redirected to the servers, guaranteeing compatibility with legacy serial devices and enabling backward-compatibility with existing software. With TCP server, TCP client, and UDP modes, the EKI-1511 Series ensure compatibility in network software using a standard network API. Serial devices can communicate with other devices via peer-to-peer, thus eliminating the need for an intermediate host PC and software programming.

BB-ESR901
Description Industrial and commercial measurement and control systems often have standalone devices with unused serial ports. B B SmartWorx ESRx Serial Servers allow you to connect those ports into your existing LAN or WAN, giving you access to more information and the ability to configure, manage and troubleshoot those devices from a control room, office or a distant location via a WAN. Save the cost, time and trouble of carrying a laptop out to devices located in distant, cold, dirty or uncomfortable environments. ESRx Serial Servers are built for industrial environments, featuring an IP30 approved, slim line, DIN rail mountable case. They operate from a range of voltages using AC or DC power, feature terminal block power connectors and even support redundant DC power. An external power source is required (not included, sold separately). Connect a serial device to the ESRx’s serial port and connect the ESRx to your LAN. Your networked computer ‘sees’ the device over the network as a virtual serial connection. ESRx serial servers support TCP or UDP protocols and allow transmit-to and receive-from multiple IP addresses. There are four methods of configuration: Vlinx Management Software, Web Server, Telnet, or a direct RS-232 console connection using a terminal program. Operation(See operating manual for more details.) ESRx serial servers can be accessed and configured from any web browser (ie, Internet Explorer) on the LAN/WAN allowing you to remotely manage the software and your serial device and do off-site troubleshooting. Vlinx ESRx Serial Servers provide automatic resumption of the TCP data connection in case of a power failure or loss of an Ethernet connection on either the client or server. Once the Heartbeat connection is established, the server sends a signal to the client every five seconds until communication is re-established. Without this feature, a device that loses a connection and stops communicating would not be able to reconnect without a person physically attending to the problem. The Heartbeat feature works with virtual COM and TCP direct IP connections. Vlinx Manager Software allows easy access to the serial server to configure the server and its ports, upgrade firmware and monitor port status and activity. When the Vlinx Manager opens, it will search for and display all serial servers on the network. The Monitor Port feature allows you to use any PC on the LAN/WAN to actively view and troubleshoot the communications status. It shows when there is a client connection to the server and the client IP address. It displays the number of bytes transmitted and received, as well as the status of the hardware handshaking lines.

Features:

  • Serial Device Server
  • Metal DIN Rail Case
  • One RS-232/422/485 Port
  • Auto Detect 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
  • Virtual COM Drivers for Windows 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, Server 2008, & Win 7

BB-ESP901
Ethernet enable any serial device using Advantech Vlinx™ Serial Server technology and put your serial ports to work for you with the ability to communicate with every piece of equipment from any networked PC. Eliminate site visits just to make a minor configuration change. Reduce service calls and increase productivity by knowing what your equipment is doing before you get a trouble report. Spend more time doing relevqnt tasks instead of chasing down nuisance problems with remotely located equipment.

Much of today’s high-tech equipment ships with a serial port for programming, monitoring or diagnostics. 80% of these serial ports are left unconnected, often because a person travels to the port to make the connection or a permanent PC is not desirable. With Advantech Vlinx Serial Servers, you can put all of those ports to work.

Simply connect the Vlinx Serial Server to the equipment’s serial port and connect the Vlinx Ethernet port to your LAN. Your equipment is now online and appears as a local COM port on any networked PC running Advantech Virtual Serial Port software. No software customization required – just run the appropriate software for your equipment.

The BB-ESP90x family integrates the benefits of Ethernet communications with existing serial devices by offering the combination of three serial interfaces:RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485. The Ethernet connection will auto select 10BaseT or 100BaseTX.

These serial servers provide Windows host control over serial devices located virtually anywhere on a TCP/IP or UDP/IP Ethernet connection giving authorized users control over the connected serial device and server configuration from anywhere outside the LAN.

Features:

  • Serial Device Server
  • Compact Panel Mount Case
  • One RS-232/422/485 Port
  • Auto Detect 10/100 Mbps Ethernet

Ethernet enable any serial device using Advantech Vlinx™ Serial Server technology and put your serial ports to work for you with the ability to communicate with every piece of equipment from any networked PC. Eliminate site visits just to make a minor configuration change. Reduce service calls and increase productivity by knowing what your equipment is doing before you get a trouble report. Spend more time doing relevqnt tasks instead of chasing down nuisance problems with remotely located equipment.

Much of today’s high-tech equipment ships with a serial port for programming, monitoring or diagnostics. 80% of these serial ports are left unconnected, often because a person travels to the port to make the connection or a permanent PC is not desirable. With Advantech Vlinx Serial Servers, you can put all of those ports to work.

Simply connect the Vlinx Serial Server to the equipment’s serial port and connect the Vlinx Ethernet port to your LAN. Your equipment is now online and appears as a local COM port on any networked PC running Advantech Virtual Serial Port software. No software customization required – just run the appropriate software for your equipment.

The BB-ESP90x family integrates the benefits of Ethernet communications with existing serial devices by offering the combination of three serial interfaces:RS-232, RS-422, and RS-485. The Ethernet connection will auto select 10BaseT or 100BaseTX.

These serial servers provide Windows host control over serial devices located virtually anywhere on a TCP/IP or UDP/IP Ethernet connection giving authorized users control over the connected serial device and server configuration from anywhere outside the LAN.

Features:

  • Serial Sevice Server
  • Compact Panel Mount Case
  • Two RS-232/422/485 Ports
  • Auto Detect 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
  • Virtual COM Drivers for Windows 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, Server 2008, 7, 10
