ELO E221ZKE001

to control or diagnose remote device. This GPIO maintain  ±12V 
levels. It can be configured to aware (e.g. by an e-mail) based on 
states of those binary inputs.

2.0 How does it works?

The adapter converts RS232 signalling to the Ethernet interface. It 

transfers  all  signals  of the  RS232 except  RI. RS232 interface  is 
presented with DB9M (D-SUB, Canon), whereas  Ethernet  is lead 
out  via standard Ethernet RJ-45 socket.

Adapter   can   operate   with   full   duplex   with   maximal   bitrate 

230kbps.   The  Ethernet  layer   can   communicate   with  10   and 
100Mbps.

3.0 Installation

This chapter describes the adapter E221 installation process. The 

process   is   divided   to   sub-process   software   and   hardware 
installation.

3.1 Ethernet connection

Adapter meets IEEE 802.3 specification and is to be plugged in to 

the  network with straight UTP cable. When configured as  

Serial 

Bridge

, the cross-over cable should be used instead.

For the first time, the adapter is configured to acquire IP address 

from DHCP server, so in the network must be such a service to 
dedicate IP address (e.g. AP – access point, router..). It can be later 
changed to the fixed IP address.

3.2 RS-232 connection

A DB9M (D-SUB 9 pin Male) connector is wired as DTE, it means 
that device with the same connector (DB9M), wired as DTE, must
