FCC WARNING
Class A for Serial Device Server (Model SE5002D)
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection
against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
This equipment uses, generates and radiates radio frequency energy and, if not installed and
used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which
case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
A shielded-type power cord is required in order to meet FCC emission limits and also to prevent
interference to the nearby radio and television reception. It is essential that only the supplied
power cord be used.
Use only shielded cables to connect other devices to this equipment by RS-232 or RS-485
ports.
Be cautioned that changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void ones’ authority to operate the equipment.
Caution
Beginning from here there will be extreme caution exercised.
Never install or work on electrical or cabling during periods of lighting activity.
Never connect or disconnect power when hazardous gases are present.
WARNING: Disconnect the power and allow to cool 5 minutes before
touching.

1.Introduction
1.1 Product Overview
The SE5002D Ethernet Serial device server acts as a gateway between Ethernet (TCP/UDP)
and RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 communications. The information transmitted by SE5002D is
transparent to both host computers (Ethernet) and serial devices (RS-232/RS-422/RS-485).
Data coming from the Ethernet is sent to the designated RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 port and data
received from RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 port is sent to the Ethernet transparently allowing
bidirectional communication.
In the computer-aided manufacturing or industrial automation areas, SE5002D is used by field
devices to directly connect to an Ethernet network. The user can then use a network application
or use Virtual COM software to simulate a virtual COM port in the PC to fetch serial data from
SE5002D remotely over Ethernet.
With SE5002D, it is possible to communicate with a remote serial device in the LAN or even in
the internet, which dramatically increases reach in distance and scalability.
