About the Anybus Serial Server
General
A serial server is a device that forwards data between a serial port and an Ethernet network. It can be
used to connect your serial devices to a LAN or Internet without any hardware modifications. Together
with a special software driver in a PC, it can be used as a remote serial port.
PC applications designed to access devices on a normal serial port, can access the remote serial server
without any software modifications. The LAN/Internet network together with the serial server and driv-
er can be viewed as a long “virtual” serial cable
The Anybus Serial Server connects serial devices to Ethernet networks using the IP protocol family.
Some different types of serial devices supported are listed below:
• Scanners
•Printers
•PLC’s
• Data Collection Devices
• Telecommunications Equipment
• Data Display Devices
• Security Alarms and Access Control Devices
• Hand-held Instruments
•Modems

Mounting
Procedure
1. Snap the Serial Server on to the DIN-rail (as described on pictures above).
2. Connect the Ethernet cable to the RJ45 connector.
3. Connect the serial device to the 9-pole DSUB connector.
4. Connect the Power Supply and apply power.
5. Now you can start using the Serial Server.
(use the Anybus IPconfig Utility to configure the IP address and other network settings).
