The EM 200 is the newest, smallest serial TCP / IP embedded module for a serial device, designed for use in more complex products.
Functionally, the module almost completely repeats the EM120. The main difference is the type of network interface: 100BaseT Ethernet; and module sizes (the smallest of all EM models). To ensure a smaller size, the module does not have a built-in transformer junction *.
EM200 specifications:
Supported protocols: TCP, UDP, ICMP (ping), ARP and DHCP
Serial interface: RTS, CTS, DTR, DSR, and five additional general purpose I / O lines
Ability to update the internal program via a serial port or network
Four LED lines for monitoring module status **
Two extended direction buffers (12Kb)
Power supply: 5 VDC, 220 mA max.
Dimensions: 32.1 mm X 18.5 mm X 7.3 mm.
Operating conditions: 0 ... 55 ° С
Equipment:
EM 200 - contains only the EM200 module EM 200- SK starter kit - the EM200 module is installed on a circuit board with cable connectors, cables, power supply. To simplify and accelerate the development of treatments EM200 recommend the first time to purchase starter kits EM200SK
VSPD - the Virtual the Serial Port Driver . Virtual Serial Driver.
The driver is installed under any (from Win98 and higher) version of Windows and creates the so-called virtual COM-port. By specifying the TCP / IP address in the driver properties, it is set to which DS100 / EM200 module the information addressed to the created COM port will be redirected. The only thing that is required from the software servicing the device with the RS232 interface is to indicate the new COM port for communication. Thus, it is not necessary to change the existing software for this device! Thanks to the use of VSPD, the program will not notice that the device is actually connected not to the computer, but to the network.
Moreover, if you have a dedicated global TCP / IP address, the RS device can be located anywhere - just connect it to the Internet!
* To save space, use an RJ45 connector with integrated transformer isolation ** LEDs are not built in (they can be connected to these lines)
