CSE-H53 User’s Manual Ver. 1.7 This symbol, found on your product or on its packaging, indicates that this product should not be treated as household waste when you wish to dispose of it. Instead, it should be handed over to an applicable collection point for the recycling of electrical and electronic equipment.
The serial communication is quite simple to implement but has weaknesses like short distance and hard maintenance. CSE-H53 lets the serial devices connect to the Internet. To communicate on the Internet, devices should use TCP/IP protocol, so CSE-H53 processes the converting serial data to TCP/IP.

4.6.2 Revoking Serurity Options CSE-H53 offers restriction methods for security like filtering password or MAC and IP address. In the ISP mode, you can revoke all of these. When you forgot the password, enter the ISP mode to solve the problem.
In this mode, CSE-H53 functions as a TCP server. CSE-H53 listens to a TCP connection from remote host. Once a host tries to connect to CSE-H53, it responses that request. After the connection is established, CSE-H53 converts the raw data from the serial port to TCP/IP data and sends them to the network and vice versa.
