The packing algorithm can be configurated to transmit data immediately or buffer data
until a transmit requirement is fulfilled. The transmit requirement depend on received
data at serial interface CH1 and can be:
1. An end of frame character is received.
2. An end of frame delay has elapsed since last received character.
3. A maximum number of bytes have been received.
Recommended configuration of the packing algorithm can be found in the sample applica-
tions chapter.
When the ED-10 is used in pairs, to establish a serial point to point connection over
network, each point is identified by its IP address and protocol port number.
One points local identity must match with the other points Remote identity, i.e there
is a "cross-relation" between the two points identities.
It is also possible to communicate one to many (e.g master/slave), by using a broadcast
IP address (e.g. 255.255.255.255). Both directed and limited broadcast is supported.
Configuration mode
Local or remote configuration is managed by either a terminal programme or by
ED-Tool.
ED-Tool is a Windows based set-up programme which provides easy configuration.
Configuration is also possible by using terminal programmes (e.g HyperTerminal for
local configuration or Telnet for remote configuration). A hardware switch ensures
restore of default settings.
Config mode will be entered; automatically by ED-Tool, manually by terminal programme
or when power is switched on with restore default setting switch set.
First time configure: ED-10 is shipped with IP-address 10.0.0.10.
Please make sure that 10.0.0.10 is compliant to your network,
before ED-10 is connected. Otherwise use serial interface to locally
set a valid IP address.
A valid IP-address must be compliant with the network in use and not chosen arbitrarily,
ask your network administrator when in doubt.
