NetCom 113 is an industrial-strength network-based serial device server for connecting one RS232/422/485 device like CNC, PLC, weighting scale, scanner and other devices directly to the 10/100Mbps Ethernet network running TCP/IP. In addition to allowing serial devices to get networked, any host (PC Server or Workstation) without network access can also access remote serial device via adding NetCom devices to the existing serial port. NetCom 113 can be configured over Driver Panels, WEB Browser, serial Port, Telnet, SNMP and serves as a transparent serial channel without platform and distance limitation.
VScom Driver for Windows NT 4.0, 2000, XP and 2003, Vista. Driver Mode creates virtual Com port.
TCP Raw Server
Raw data transfer over TCP/IP. Accepts multiple incoming connections.
TCP Raw Client
Raw data transfer over TCP/IP. Connects to multiple hosts or devices waiting for incoming connections.
TCP Advanced Settings
Special settings for user-defined modes
UDP Mode
Raw data transfer by UDP. The NetCom is client and server at the same time. With the timeout functionality and a configurable trigger string it can make defined UDP packets of incoming data.
Null Modem Tunnel
Connecting two NetCom used as virtual null modem cable.
IP Modem
The serial port emulates a standard modem. Operates by AT-commands, and dials to IP-Addresses instead of phone numbers. Windows "INF"-Driver provided for installation.
Print Server
The NetCom accepts print jobs, and spools them to the attached serial printer. Operates as of RFC1197, similar to the line printer daemon in Unix-systems
Configuration utility automatically finds NetCom devices in the network
Operating mode
Automatic mode switching between Driver and TCP RAW mode. With TCP Advanced settings it is possible to configure the NetCom for using it in multiple modes, so it decides automatically which mode should be used.
Configuration
Configuration over Driver Panels, NetCom Manager, WEB Browser, serial console, Telnet, SNMP
SNMP
special VScom MIB included
