I/O Controller 2 Manual
I/O Controller 2
Ethernet – RS-232/485 + inputs and outputs
I/O Controller 2 is an Ethernet-enabled device with 8 digital inputs,
8 digital outputs and a RS-232/485 serial interface.
All interfaces are accessible over TCP/IP using a M2M
protocol.
Two devices can be connected against each other
(Box-2-Box mode) in order to extend the digital and
RS232 signals over the computer network.

Basic features

• 1x full RS-232 or RS-485 serial port accessible over the Ethernet.
• The remote port can be controlled with a virtual driver for Windows just like, for example,
COM 5 (a Windows XP / Vista / Windows 7 / Server 2003 / Server 2008 / x64 driver is
available free of charge). Compatible with RFC2217.
• 100 Mbps Ethernet interface – 100BASE-Tx, RJ 45
• Support for TCP/IP terminal, TELNET – NVT type (Network Virtual Terminal)
• Two devices can „tunnel" the serial port, 8 inputs and 8 outputs over the Ethernet
• Web-based interface for configuration
• Wide range of supported serial interface parameters:

SDK (Software Development Kit) is available for the device with examples for MS Visual
Basic, Delphi, Borland C++, JAVA, PHP and more
