  • Page 5: Introduction

    Ground (Reference) 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.

    SSE232-LE – Serial Server- User’s Manual Exemys Ordering Codes The complete product ordering code is: Ordering Code Description (1) serial port RS-232/RS-485 SSE232-1B0-00-LE Ethernet port 10/100 Mbps Technical Specifications Technical Specifications Network Protocols TCP / IP, UDP / IP, DNS, http, DHCP, ICMP, ARP, SNMP.
  • Page 7: Installation

    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 – Serial Server- User’s Manual Exemys 2.2.2 RS-485 serial port wirings To connect the device RS485 serial port to PC serial port or any other serial device, it must be connected in the terminals as can be shown in the following figure.
  • Page 9: Ethernet Connection

    10/100 Mbps connection. LEDs Indicators 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.
  • Page 10: Configuration

    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.
  • Page 11: Configuration Web Page

    If you want to change it, you can do it from the Administrator menu 3.3 Operation Modes When you enter the SSE232-LE configuration web page, you can configure the device to use it in one of the following modes: www.exemys.com...
  • Page 12: Server Mode

    Server Mode In this operating mode the user must configure a server port in which the SSE232-LE will be listening and waiting for a client to establish a connection. This connection can be made in the TCP or UDP protocols.
  • Page 13: Client Mode

    SSE232-LE – Serial Server- User’s Manual Exemys 3.3.2 Client Mode In this mode the device tries to make a connection to a server device. The IP address and destination port must be configured. This connection can be made in the TCP or UDP protocols.

    SSE232-LE – Serial Server- User’s Manual Exemys Common parameters 3.4.1 Serial Port Configuration The following parameters can be configured in the device serial port: Parameter Options Configuration Manual / Automatic Com Port Type RS-232 / RS-485 Baud Rate 300 to 115200 bps...
  • Page 15: Packaging

    3.4.2 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 and / or Termination.
  • Page 16: Typical Uses

    4.1 Connection with Serial Port Redirector When using the SSE232-LE to replace an RS-232 connection between a PC and a device, you may need to install a Serial Port Redirector on your computer. This software will create a virtual COM port on your computer to use an existing software as if you were connected to the computer using a physical COM port.

    SSE232-LE – Serial Server- User’s Manual Exemys UDP Point-to-Point Tunnel In point-to-point connection in UDP Client-Client, once the link between two SSE232 is established, the received data in a serial port will be sent by the remote serial port and vice versa. The operation is very similar to the TCP serial tunnel.
  • Page 18: Udp Multipoint Tunnel

    Exemys UDP Multipoint Tunnel In this configuration, incoming data to any SSE232-LE serial port will output through all the serial ports of the other SSE232s. That means its operation is like RS-485 network but using the Ethernet network as transport.
  • Page 19: Monitoring

    Exemys MONITORING SSE232-LE manages the data traffic that sends and receives. This data is reflected in its web page in the Monitoring menu. Here you can see the status of the connections and different data counters sent and received (from the perspective of the serial port).

    To delete the password, only an empty password must be saved. Restart If necessary, the SSE232-LE can be restarted. In this way all your connections will be closed, and all your tasks will begin again as if you had just energized the device.

    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.
  • Page 24: Ethernet Command Console

    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.

    PC connected to the same network where the Exemys device is being configured. Exemys Device Locator When is executed for the first time, it will search for any Exemys device within the network. Device: Device model name Host: Host name assigned to the device.
  • Page 29 SSE232-LE – Serial Server- User’s Manual Exemys All Exemys devices has a configuration password. If you have configured one, enter it in the Device Password box. You can type an IP address, Netmask or Gateway, or you can click on "enable DHCP" check box for device to search a DHCP server.
  • Page 30: Packaging Rules

    Once a data is received, the SSE232-LE will wait for a "long silence" configured by the user before sending the packet over the network. If the silence is set to 0, the SSE232-LE will send the received data to the serial port immediately. B.2 Termination Termination parameter is the termination character of a series of bytes that is incomingto the serial port.
  • Page 31: Command Console

    SSE232-LE can be set through a command console connecting the device to a serial port on the PC. To access the command console, you must connect the SSE232-LE to a RS232 port on a PC and you must Exemys Console.
