Integration
This chapter explains how you can make Eddy to communicate. It deals with LAN and pin header
connection guides for Eddy to operate together with the target serial device.
Follow these steps to connect Eddy to the device and network.

Connection Guide
1) LAN
In order to connect Eddy to network, you need to use RJ45 Ethernet port. It supports both 10Mbps and
100Mbps Ethernet connection (auto-sensing). Since Eddy’s LAN port supports MDIX function, you can
either connect cross LAN cable or direct LAN cable. Plug one end of a LAN cable to Eddy and the other
end to a hub, switch, or any other network device that can provide you with network access.
2) Pin Header
For those models with pin header interface, it is important that you clearly understand which pins you
are to connect and how you connect them. For pin specifications, please refer to Chapter 3. Hardware
Description. Please note that not all pins must be used. You can selectively connect only those pins
relevant to your application.
3) DB9
For Eddy-S1/DB9, you can simply connect Eddy to the destination serial device with a DB9 cable. For
pin specifications, please refer to Chapter 3.
