Easily access your RS232 serial devices from anywhere, over a local LAN/intranet, or over WAN/Internet.

Overview:

VS NetCom 411 is an industrial-strength network-based serial device server for connecting four RS232 devices like CNC, PLC, weighting scale, scanner and other devices directly to the 10/100Mbps Ethernet network running TCP/IP.  In addition to allowing serial devices to get networked, any host (PC Server or Workstation) without network access can also access remote serial devices via adding NetCom devices to the existing serial port. NetCom 411 can be configured over Driver Panels, WEB Browser, serial Port, Telnet, SNMP and serves as a transparent serial channel without platform and distance limitation.

Applications:

Industrial / Factory / Laboratory automation
SCADA system
Automatic warehouse control system
Building automation system
Wafer fabrication system
Self-service banking system
Retail system
Other remote and distributed serial devices control

Driver Mode creates virtual Com port.

TCP Raw Server:  Raw data transfer over TCP/IP.  Accepts multiple incomming connections.

TCP Raw Client:  Raw data transfer over TCP.IP.  Connects to multiple hosts or devices waiting for incoming connections.

TCP Advanced Settings:  Special settings for user defined mode

UDP Mode:  Raw data transfer by UDP. The NetCom is client and server at the same time. With the timeout functionality and a configurable trigger string it can make defined UDP packets of incoming data.

Null Modem Tunnel:  Connecting two NetCom used as virtual null modem cable.

IP Modem:  The serial port emulates a standard modem. Operates by AT-commands, and dials to IP-Addresses instead of phone numbers.  Windows "INF"-Driver provided for installation.
