Product Overview Product Overview SSE232-LE is a serial interface RS-232 / RS-485 to Ethernet converter and vice versa. It allows the access, through Ethernet, to devices such as alarm panels, data acquisition, PLCs or any serial interface device. The device is the interface between the serial communication device and the Ethernet network, acting as a transparent converter.
RS232 serial port to PC serial port or any other serial device, it must be connected as can be shown in the following figure. You should consider SSE232-LE is a DTE device, which means it must cross wire with those of the PC.

SSE232-LE has two LEDs indicators on the Ethernet connector, one green and one yellow. The yellow one shows the connection to the network, while the green one indicates the status of TCP / UDP connections.
SSE232-LE configuration is done through a configuration web page connecting the device to the Ethernet network on which it is going to work. To access to the configuration web page, you must connect SSE232-LE to ethernet network and install Exemys Device Locator software.

Packaging Packaging SSE232-LE sends all the data received by its serial port to the established TCP or UDP connection transparently. To optimize the use of the network it is usually expected to join several bytes in the serial port before sending them to the network. For this you can use two criteria: Silence...
Software. To download a 30-day trial or purchase a license contact sales@exemys.com. For this mode you must configure SSE232-LE in TCP server mode. In the redirector you must indicate the IP address of the SSE232-LE and the port (usually the 10000 port).

Here you can also configure the read and read/write communities. You should consider that both communities cannot have the same name. This file describes the set of objects or parameters of the SSE232-LE accessible by SNMP. You can download the SSE232.MIB file from www.exemys.com/documentation.
SSE232-LE from Firmware version 3.2, provides a command console and monitoring via Ethernet. To access it, a TCP connection must be made to the SSE232-LE, using port 999 for the connection. Each command must end with the character CR (ASCII 13) and for each one it will receive a reply confirming that the command has been executed was successful or not.
