Remote Management
As the ICS-11x series provides an easy serial-to-Ethernet connectivity and
connection to a TCP/IP network, the remote network system can thus be managed
efficiently via its Web, telnet and VCOM management interfaces. It supports both
application and serial operation modes for alarm or IP address connection, which
saves the network administrator’s time in detecting and locating network problems
without visual inspection of the cabling and devices. Multiple connection options are
available for large networking environment as well.

Easy Chassis Installation
The ICS-11x series can be used as a stand-alone unit or a slide-in module to PLANET Media Converter Chassis (MC-700 and MC-1500 chassis series). The
media chassis can assist in providing DC power to the ICS-11x series and can be DIN-rail or wall mounted for efcient use of cabinet space, without the need
of replacing the existing serial equipment and software system.

Applications
Access Control System – Traditional System Application
Most of the enterprises and government use access control plate and Mifare or RFID to authorize entrance identity. Traditionally, the access control machines
use RS232 or RS485 serial interface with their cables connecting to login server. By applying the ICS-11x Serial Device Server series, the access control
machine is able to extend the network over longer distances via Ethernet interfaces. In addition, the ICS-11x series can be linked to an xDSL router to get the
internet access capability so that the access control can be set and monitored over the internet.

Process Control
To monitor, configure and manage the robotic conveyer including other production machines, PLC (programmable logical control) is required to drive the
above manufacturing process. The ICS-11x series can be set to the TCP server mode and connected to the PLC. Thus, the administrator can congure and
set command settings through Fast Ethernet intranet to remotely control the PLC, without having to stand by the I/O machine.
