transparently, user can update the product to WIFI control without knowing the WIFI
and TCPIP detail. All the convert work is done by the module. For users, the RS232 side

detail by sample settings which can setup via inside web pages or RS232 port. The
setup work only need do once, then it will save the setting forever.

1.1
Hardware connection
In order to test the communication between serial and WIFI network, we need to
connect the serial port to PC, and also connect WIFI network to PC. Due to the special
need both WIFI and serial, we connect and USB WIFI network Card as below, or you
could use laptop which has WIFI.
About the serial connection, because the module is 3.3V TTL level, the computer
cannot connect to it directly. Users need to use a TTL to RS232 adapter cable and then
connect to PC. In order to facilitate the test, we provide WIFI232 evaluation board for
users to choose.
