Refer to the subsequent chapters for specific details and instructions. 1.1. Hardware Connection We connect the serial port and network port of the USR-C216 to PC, if PC has no serial port, you can use USB to 232cable. Hardware connection: You just need connect RS232 cable and power to C216 as picture shows.

2.Product Overview 2.1. Product Introduction The hardware of USR-C216 is integrated into MAC, basic frequency chip and RF transceiver unit. Built-in low power operation mechanism can effectively realize the low power operation of the module; Support Wi-Fi protocol and TCP/IP protocol, users only need a simple configuration, to achieve the networking function of UART devices. Module size is small, easy to solder in the customer's hardware circuit.

3.1. Wireless Distribution Network The USR-C216 serial server can be configured either as a wireless STA or as an AP. So USR-C216 logically supports two wireless interfaces, one as STA, the other as an AP, and the other STA can connect to the wireless network through AP interface of the serial server.
3.1.3.Work as AP+STA USR-C216 can support one AP interface and one STA interface simultaneously. After opening the AP+STA function, the STA and AP interfaces are available at the same time. The STA interface of the serial server is connected to the router and is connected to the server in the network through TCPB, and the AP interface can be connected by mobile phone / PAD (through TCPA).
WIFI, without any parsing, to achieve data transfer between general serial port devices and network devices. In transparent transmission mode, users can fully compatible with the original software platform. Users can basically support wireless data transmission without software modification.

C216 supports search in-LAN. When C216 is connected to a wireless router, users can obtain the IP address of the serial server in C216's current LAN by sending UDP broadcasts to a fixed port to realize device search and communication. It can also directly connect C216's AP to send search instructions. Jinan USR IOT Technology Limited www.usriot.com...

Note: Search tools and C216 must be in the same LAN. If multiple STAs are connected to a router, the computer running the search tool is also connected to that router. This search tool can search all the STA. Jinan USR IOT Technology Limited www.usriot.com...
Query/setting USR-Cloud password 3.4.3.USR-Link When USR-C216 works in AP mode, it opens a UDP port with a port number of 48899 for receiving commands from the Fast Networking Protocol. The mobile phone can be directly connected to the WIFI network of USR-C216, query the list of SSID information and set the router SSID and password through the command of UDP protocol.
