Other Communications Modes
ES1A Converters also feature the following communications profiles:
Modem Emulation Mode
allows you to configure the serial port to operate
as if it is a modem. For legacy applications where a serial device is set up to
communicate through a modem, the serial device can now be connected to
the ES1A and communication occurs over the network. The ES1A emulates
modem responses to and from the serial device.
In
Console Management Mode
the ES1A can be configured for connection
to the management port typically found on network devices such as routers,
switches and servers. This allows remote management of the network device.
Communication can be accomplished using telnet to a specific port in the
converter.
Custom Mode
allows you to custom configure the ES1A serial port and is
used if your application does not fit into any other predefined modes.
