The Device Server enable virtually any industrial device with serialcapability to be connected to a or existing Ethernet network. By encapsulating serial data and transporting it over Ethernet, the XPress DR/DR-IAP establishes virtual serial links over Ethernet. By using these units, limited-distance, point-to-point, direct serial connections can now be extended within the plant, throughout the facility, or across the global enterprise.
The Device Server installable communication drivers allow specific support for various industrial communication protocols. With native support for these protocols, devices that previously allowed only oneconnection can now support multiple connections simultaneously.
Flexible configuration options allow the unit to be set up locally using the serial port, or remotely over Ethernet using Telnet or a common web browser. DeviceInstaller, a Windows based configurationsoftware, simplifies installation and configuration, enables access to the Web Manager and Telnet communications, and ping attached devices over the network. Flash memory provides for maintenancefree, non-volatile storage, and allows future system upgrades.
Packaged in a rugged DIN-rail mount case and featuring 2000V galvanic isolation, 1500V Ethernet isolation, a wide 0° to 60°C operating range, and a 9-30VDC/9-24VAC power input, the Device Server is ideal for virtually any industrial application.
