Using the Web Configuration and Management Interface

Serial Bridge

Select Serial Bridge to implement Paired Mode (also called serial tunneling). This allows serial devices connected to two ES1A converters to communicate across the network. The two ES1A converters automatically connect to each other.

Modem Emulation

Select Modem Emulation 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 be connected to the ES1A and communication occurs over the network. The ES1A emulates modem responses to and from the serial device.

Custom

Select Custom to custom configure the ES1A serial port and is used if your application does not fit into any other predefined modes. This is an advanced option that allows full configuration of the serial port.

Apply

After you have selected a port profile, click the Apply button. The Serial Port Configuration page will re-appear and will contain additional configuration settings specific to the profile you have chosen.

For more information on these configuration options see the web-based Tutorial and online Help.

Basic Serial Settings

Click the Basic Serial Settings menu bar on the Serial Port Configuration page to configure the ES1A’s serial port Baud Rate, Data Bits, Parity, Stop Bits and Flow Control parameters. For all profiles except RealPort, the Basic Serial Settings configuration section allows you to set these parameters. When the RealPort profile is selected the serial port settings will be directed by the PC applications using the virtual COM port.

Advanced Serial Settings

Click the Advanced Serial Settings menu bar to access settings used to fine tune the serial port. Typically these setting will not need to be changed. Consult the web-based tutorial for more information if necessary.
