Description
Ethernet to Serial Device with 1 Port software selectable as RS232, RS422/485 Full duplex or RS422 Half duplex. ES-511 has removable Screw Terminals Blocks for easy wiring, a slim ‘end on’ case and integral DIN rail mount. Our Industrial Ethernet to Serial has an operating temperature range of -30 to +80 degrees Celsius and with +5VDC to +30VDC Dual input reverse polarity protected power supply making it perfect for industrial applications. Data transfer rates up to 1,000,000 baud, coupled with 1Mbit/s line drivers deliver uncompromising performance. Our Industrial ES range provides simple instant networked serial ports in demanding environments. Serial Port Tunneling allows serial cable replacement over any distance, no software required. Suitable to be wired into existing power and network infrastructure or can be used with our PW-600 power supply.
Windows Users - Our software drivers give you local COM ports, allowing you to retain your existing software applications and connect to your devices over the network. COM Port can be assigned from COM 1 to COM 255 and the Brainboxes Ethernet to serial device remembers your COM Port assignment on reboots.
Web Interface Users (Linux/Apple OS/Android) - A web interface allows secure configuration and control of the serial ports over a local network or the internet using any browser. You can access the device via TCP/IP sockets from any networked device like an Android tablet, PC or phone.

Tx/Rx Modes | RS232 Standard: RS232 allows point to point communication between 2 devices. RS422 Standard: RS422 allows one transmitter and up to 10 receivers with data transmitter rates up to 10 megabits per second for distances up to 40 feet and up to 100 Kilobits per second for distances up to 4,000 feet (1219 metres). To achieve good long distance noise immunity, 2 wires are used to carry each signal, configured as a twisted pair of cables. The TXD pair and RXD pair are used to carry the data whilst the RTS pair and CTS pair lines are used for handshaking. Thus 2 twisted pairs are used without handshaking and 4 twisted pair cable is used with handshaking both these schemes allow full duplex data communications. RS485 Standard: RS485, based on the RS422 standard allows up to 32 driver/receivers pairs on a standard load or 128 low load devices per port can be connected. Whilst only one of these should be transmitting data at any time, the rest can all simultaneously listen to the data. Handshaking is performed by software protocol. Two twisted pairs form a full duplex system. Often only one twisted pair cable is used as the TXD and RXD lines are tied together; this is known as half duplex mode. Brainboxes RS422/485 products implement a state of the art hardware autogating circuit ensuring error free communications in half duplex configurations. Industrial Ethernet to Serial RS485: recievers an 1/8th load allowing upto 256 nodes on the bus. Fail safe open circuit and short circuit protection, protects the Industrial Ethernet to Serial against wiring faults |
