Configuring serial port
The serial port settings must be configured to match the settings of your serial device.
Select the Configuration→Serial sub-menu from the menu bar to open the serial
settings which are shown below:
Figure 5.9: Serial settings page
The following serial settings can be entered:
Physical layer
Can be set to two-wire RS-485, RS-422 or RS-232 mode. RS-232 is the default.
Depending on this setting either the D-sub (RS-232) connector or the terminal block
connector (RS-485/422) of the SERIP-100 is utilized.
Baud rate
Communication speed
Data bits
Number of transmitted data bits
Stop bits
Can be configured to be 1 or 2.
Parity
Changes parity mode to either none, even or odd.
Handshake
RTS/CTS handshake can be enabled to to perform flow control between the
SERIP-100 gateway and the serial device (RS-232 only).
Once you click Save the new settings are stored and applied instantly. A confirmation
message is shown.
Remote restarting the device
You can perform a remote restart of the device from the web interface. A remote restart
is similar to power cycling the device. Possibly connected clients are disconnected and
communication is interrupted until the device has rebooted.
