1. Summary
ZLAN5143D is a kind of RS485 device data collector/IOT gateway specially designed
for industrial environment, which integrates serial port server, Modbus gateway, MQTT
gateway, RS485 to JSON and other functions. It has an RS485 interface and RJ45
interface. It uses guide-way type installation way, the volume is compact and
installation is convenient. Terminal type power supply access, 9~24V wide voltage
input. Because there is only RS485 interface, the RS232 interface which is not
commonly used on industrial instruments is cancelled, which saves the cost and
volume and has a higher cost performance ratio compared with ordinary products.

When used as a normal serial port server, the 5143D network port is connected to the
RJ45 Ethernet. The host computer software can use TCP/UDP transmission mode or
virtual serial port mode to send data to the 5143D RS485 interface. Data received on
the RS485 interface is also transferred to software or virtual serial ports on the TCP
