1. Introduction
The M-4132 module is specially designed for the remote maintenance
solution with voice streaming. This module provides 2 major technologies
on networking: Voice streaming and Pair connection functions. The Pair
connection means that the user can operate remote COM port device via
Ethernet TCP/IP protocol just like a local COM port and the Voice
streaming means the user can talk to remote operator while operate remote
COM-linked devices. Refer to the following graph. Furthermore, M-4132
integrates the Virtual com technology. That can resolve the insufficiency
of real com port in PC. By applying this technology, the maintenance man
can take the remote maintenance or monitor whatever time or place.

2.2 Wiring Instructions
The communication interface of M-4132 includes RS-232, RS-485 and
Ethernet. The wiring instructions are described in section 2.2.1, 2.2.2 and
2.2.3.
2.2.1 RS-232 connection
There are two types of RS-232 ports, DTE (Data Terminal Equipment,
like M2M series, PC, Serial Printers, PLC and Video Cameras) and
DCE (Data Circuit-Terminating Equipment, like modem) type, and that
the signal names and pin numbers are the same, but signal flow is
opposite!
The M-4132 module is a DTE and the user can uses “3-wire” RS-232
or “5-wire” RS-232 to connect. When connecting the M-4132 to a DCE
device, the user just needs to match the signal names. When connecting
the M-4132 to a DTE device, the user needs to use a crossover cable
(TX crosses to RX, GND to GND,), as shown in the figure 4, 5.

2.2.2 RS-485 connection
The RS-485 wiring diagram is shown in figure 6.
Figure 6: RS-485 connection
2.2.3 Ethernet connection
The M-4132 module is based on a client-server architecture model.
When the M-4132 works as a server in Internet, it should set the
firewall before the M-4132 module appropriately or else the client will
not connect to the server.

(TB). These switches and button can decide initial function of the
system after power on and enable/disable the request to connect. The
descriptions are shown in table 6, 7.

3. Configuration and Operation with Web Browser
The M-4132 module is built-in web server, the user can configure and
operate the M-4132 by web browser (ex: IE).
3.1 Connection Setting
Before you open the web browser to configure the module, it needs to
connect the M-4132 and your PC to the same sub network or same
Ethernet Switch (as shown in figure 10) and set network settings (such
as IP/Mask/Gateway) of the PC. The example of connection setting will
describe below and Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP2 is used.
