Make Up to 4 RS-232 or RS-422/485 Serial Devices
Internet Ready
The NPort 5400 Series provides a convenient and
transparent way to connect serial devices to an
Ethernet, with basic configuration all that's
needed to network your existing serial devices.
Protect your current hardware investment, but
also ensure future network expandability. Moreover,
the NPort 5400 series can transparently transmit
data bi-directionally between the serial and Ethernet
interfaces.You can simultaneously centralize your
serial device management and distribute management
hosts over the network.

Easy-to-use Serial Device Server
|
| |
The built-in LCM human-machine interface
displays all configuration parameters,and
includes 4 buttons for inputting data, or
for selecting the operation mode, making
it easy to set up server parameters, including
IP address, netmask, and gateway address.
Furthermore, you can also monitor server
status and data transmission, eliminating
the need to prepare additional PCs during
installation.
|
|
Real COM/TTY Port
|
| |
The NPort 5400 Series works like an add-on
multiport serial board to the Windows host,
but with one major advantage—the TCP/IP
network. With NPort's Real COM/TTY drivers,
the serial ports on NPort 5400 series products
are recognized as Real COM ports by the
Windows operating system, or Real TTY ports
by Linux environments. Basic transmit/receive
data functions are provided, as well as
RTS, CTS, DTR, DSR, and DCD (input) control
signals.
|
|
4 Independent Serial Ports Can be Configured
for Different Operation Modes
|
| |
Versatile operation is ensured since different
modes can be used for different serial ports.
NPort 5400 Series products are suitable
for connnecting different devices for remote
data polling, event handling, or data multicasting
via the TCP/IP network. For example, you
can configure NPort 5400's port 1 for driver
mode, port 2 for TCP server mode, and ports
3 and 4 for TCP client mode.

Typical Applications
|
|
Use only one IP address
to control multiple serial devices over
the Internet
To establish automatic or remote data acquisition,
NPort 5400 series products can connect up
to 4 serial devices with only one IP address.
By specifing the IP address and the TCP
port number, a host computer can access
different serial devices over the Internet.
For example, connect to 192.168.10.2:4001
to access data from NPort 5410's first serial
port.
|
|
|
Server sharing extends
flexibility by allowing serial device management
from a centralized connection
Different host computers can share the same
NPort 5400 series to control different devices.
For example, NPort 5410's ports 1 and 2
can be configured to Host A's COM3 and COM4,
and NPort 5410's ports 3 and 4 can be configured
for Host B's COM3 and COM4.
|
|
|
Centralize RS-422/485
serial device control
Up to 31 RS-485 (2-wire or 4-wire) devices
or up to 9 RS-422 (4-wire) devices can be
connected via Ethernet with NPort 5430I's
serial port. Use the Web console or NPort
5000 series Windows utility to configure
each serial port for either RS-422 or RS-485.
