Serial Port Profiles

UID End

When Destination is set to Host and you have sequential Modbus Slave IP

 

addresses (for example, 10.10.10.1, 10.10.10.2, 10.10.10.3, etc.), you can

 

specify a UID range and the IOLAN will automatically increment the last digit

 

of the configured IP address. Therefore, you can specify a UID range of 1-100,

 

and the IOLAN will route Master Modbus messages to all Modbus Slaves with

 

IP addresses of 10.10.10.1 - 10.10.10.100.

 

Range: 1-247

 

Default: 0 (zero)

Type

Specify the configuration of the Modbus Slaves on the network.

 

Data Options:

 

z Host—The IP address is used for the first UID specified in the range. The

 

last octet in the IPv4 address is then incriminated for subsequent UID’s in

 

that range. The Host option is not applicable for IPv6 addresses.

 

z Gateway—The Modbus Master Gateway will use the same IP address

 

when connecting to all the remote Modbus slaves in the specified UID

 

range.

 

Default: Host

Start IP Address

The IP address of the TCP/Ethernet Modbus Slave.

 

Field Format: IPv4 or IPv6 (IPv6 format not supported for Destination Host)

End IP Address

Displays the ending IP address of the TCP/Ethernet Modbus Slaves, based on

 

the Start IP address and the UID range.

Protocol

Specify the protocol that is used between the Modbus Master and Modbus

 

Slave(s).

 

Data Options: TCP or UDP

 

Default: TCP

UDP/TCP Port

The destination port of the remote Modbus TCP Slave that the IOLAN will

 

connect to.

 

Range: 0-65535

 

Default: 502

DS1, TS2 specifications

Perle Systems TS2 and DS1 are advanced serial-to-Ethernet devices designed to facilitate seamless integration of serial devices with modern IP networks. These devices serve as crucial tools for businesses looking to enhance their communication capabilities while leveraging existing infrastructure.

One of the standout features of the Perle TS2 and DS1 is their ability to support multiple serial protocols including RS232, RS422, and RS485. This versatile support allows businesses to connect various legacy devices to their networks, ensuring that critical equipment can still communicate effectively in an increasingly digital landscape.

The TS2 model is particularly noted for its dual serial ports, enabling simultaneous communication with multiple devices. This capability is invaluable for applications requiring real-time data transmission, such as remote monitoring and automated control systems. The DS1 model, on the other hand, is designed for single-port use, making it an ideal solution for smaller-scale operations or specific single-device connections.

Both the TS2 and DS1 incorporate advanced features such as configuration through a web interface, which simplifies setup and management. Users can easily access device settings and monitor performance metrics remotely, enhancing operational efficiency. These devices also support various network protocols such as TCP/IP, UDP, and ICMP, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of network architectures.

In terms of security, Perle Systems prioritize user data protection. The TS2 and DS1 offer features including SSL encryption and SSH protection, providing an added layer of security for sensitive information transmitted over the network. This is particularly important for industries where data integrity and security are paramount, such as healthcare and finance.

Additionally, the rugged design of both devices ensures reliable performance even in harsh environments. With extended temperature ratings and robust housing, the TS2 and DS1 can operate in diverse conditions without compromising functionality.

To summarize, the Perle Systems TS2 and DS1 provide a reliable and flexible solution for connecting legacy serial devices to modern networks. With their support for multiple serial protocols, web-based management, robust security features, and rugged design, these devices cater to a variety of industries looking to modernize their communication infrastructure while maintaining existing equipment. Whether for large-scale operations or smaller implementations, the TS2 and DS1 equip businesses with the tools needed for effective serial communication in an IP-driven world.
