There are software packages available (i.e. SerialIP Redirector by Tactical Software) that can create
a virtual serial port on a PC. This virtual serial port can be configured to connect to a WI-MOD-E
serial port. Standard programs can then be used to access this serial port as if it were actually
connected to the PC. Alternatively the program telnet may be used to connect to a serial port on the
WI-MOD-E. The telnet command used should be:
TELNET
[IP address]
[Listen Port]
eg. TELNET 192.168.0.155 23 where the
IP address
is 192.168.0.155 and
Listen Port
is 23.
Enable RS-232 PPP Server
Check this box to enable the PPP network server on the RS-232 port.
Enable RS-485 Serial
Gateway
Check this box to enable the Serial Gateway Server on the RS-485 port.
Data Rate
The serial data rate desired. Serial data rates available range from
110bps to a maximum of 115,200bps.
Data Bits Parity Stop Bits
The data format desired. Data formats of 8N1, 7E1, 7O1, 7E2, 7O2 are
supported.
Character Timeout
Enter the maximum delay (in msec) between received serial characters
before packet is sent via network.
Server
When configured as Server, the module will wait for a connection
to be initiated by a remote client
Listen Port
Server Only. Enter the TCP port number on which the server must listen
for incoming connections. The standard TELNET port is 23.
Client
When configured as Client, the module will automatically attempt
to connect to the specified remote server
Remote Device Port
Client only. Enter the TCP port number of the remote server (i.e.
the remote port to automatically connect to).
Remote Device IP Address
Client only. Enter the IP Address of the remote server (i.e. the
remote IP Address to automatically connect to).
Multicast Group Port
Enter the UDP port number that all members of the group will use
(i.e. all group members should use the same port number).
Multicast Group IP
Enter a valid Multicast IP Address identifying the group (i.e. all
group members should use the same Multicast Group IP Address).
Valid Multicast IP Addresses are in the range 224.0.1.0 to
238.255.255.255.
