IN700-485 Series
10. ASCII Interface
10.1. Description
The Intesis gateway can be connected to any ASCII-enabled device via its EIA-232, EIA-485, or TCP/IP (Ethernet)
connectors, supervising and controlling its internal points through this interface by using simple ASCII messages.
When the gateway receives a new value for a point from the other protocol system, its ASCII interface sends the
corresponding message indicating the new value to the ASCII system.
IMPORTANT
• This functionality is only possible if the point is configured to send these "spontaneous messages."
If it doesn't, the new value will remain available in the gateway for a later poll of the ASCII system.
• You can configure this behavior for every gateway point through the configuration tool.
10.2. ASCII Serial
The ASCII interface and the ASCII master device serial connection type must be the same.
10.3. ASCII TCP
The Intesis gateway allows the configuration of:
• TCP port (5000 by default)
• IP address
• Subnet mask
• Default router address
10.4. Address Map
The ASCII address map is fully configurable; any point in the gateway can be freely configured with the desired
internal register address.
