1.-Description
The AKO-80080 device is a serial physical environment to
Ethernet communications converter that uses TCP/IP
communication packages.
Please connect the device to the Ethernet network to setup it
properly.
2.-Communication
2.1.-Ethernet addressing
As the unit is connected to the master communication system
by means of an IP connection, the addressing parameters
must be configured. The configuration modes include the
assignmen t of a fixed IP or configuration of a DHCP name. We
recommend the use of a fixed IP.
We recommend using a fixed IP address, as this will be used
by AKOnet to retrieve the data
2.1.1.-Ethernet address assignment
To configure the IP address configuration in any of the
available formats, run the IPSetup.exe executable supplied
with the unit.
Run IPSetup and select the AKO-80080 converter.
The device comes with DHCP activated as default parameter.
(If you know the IP you can skip the next step and go directly
to 2.1.3 Configuration by IP).
2.1.2.- Configuration by temporal IP from MAC
GB
Before setting a fixed IP or a DHCP, you have to set a temporary and
available IP in the same range that your computer in order to
configure the device. Insert the IP in the address field, check the
checkbox set IP from MAC and, enter the MAC address shown on
the permanent side label attached to the device, the format of which
is 00:26:45:XX:XX:XX. Do the same with the Netmask and the
Gateway if necessary, and press Configuration
2.1.3.-Configuration by IP
If you know the IP assigned by the router write it in the address field
and press configuration button.

automatically the right values: 9600, 8,None & 1, as you can
see in the picture.
2.2.5.-Tx Delay Rx Time
Set always TX delay in blank and RX as 250.
Tx Delay: additional delay of the RS serial bus
