    Control and monitor devices, that support Ethernet-based protocols, over the serial interface with client mode. Server Mode: While operating in the server mode, RS485-ETH-N converts MODBUS RTU Over TCP, TCP and MODBUS ASCII Over TCP queries that had received from the Internet or local area network to MODBUS RTU and MODBUS ASCII queries and forwards them to serial devices.

    When the LED color is orange, that means device is being responded to RX query. When the LED color is blue, that means device is being responded to TX query. If RX/TX queries come to RS485-ETH-N rapidly, RX/TX LED color can be seem as white. ON LED & RX/TX LED: If two of them blink at the same time, it means that RS485-ETH-N is restarted.

Meanings of the terms used in this tab are briefly as follows: Figura 3.3: Network Settings...
  • Page 15 It is used in determining whether two IP addresses are in the same network or not. Network settings of RS485-ETH-N can be configured in two ways: 1. When “Use DHCP” is selected, RS485-ETH-N automatically receives the settings appropriate for the network to which it connects.
  • Page 16: Serial Port Settings

    Web Server Port: It is a number used to access the Web interface of RS485-ETH-N. Default value is 80. In order not to experience any problems in routing, it is recommended not to have another device connected to the network listening to the selected port.

    3.4 GATEWAY SETTINGS RS485-ETH-N can be worked as a server or client. Gateway Settings tab is divided into two sub sections independently from Server or Client Mode. „ MODBUS Request Side (interface in which information will be requested from RS485-ETH-N).

    Port to which RS485-ETH-N will listen. Timeout: In the server mode, if a new query does not come to RS485-ETH-N until the end of timeout period at the query side, RS485-ETH-N shuts down the TCP connection to the machine sending query and allocates resources for the new TCP connections.

RS485-ETH-N forwards the converted query to the serial device via serial port and waits for response until timeout period expires (1 second is assumed to be enough for this scenario).
  • Page 21: Client Mode

    Port to which RS485-ETH-N will connect. Timeout: Throughout this period, RS485-ETH-N waits response for the last query it had sent to the slave devices. If it does not receive any response over this period, it waits for a new query from the serial interface.
  • Page 22 MODBUS ASCII queries. In this case, in oder to have a healthy data communication, the steps below need to be followed: 1. MODBUS ASCII query created by the software in the computer is sent to RS485-ETH-N via serial port. 2. RS485-ETH-N receives MODBUS ASCII query from its Ethernet port and converts it to MODBUS TCP query.
