Lantronix UDS1100-IAP

The UDS1100IAP is a rugged and powerful tool which enables users to connect, manage and control just about any piece of industrial equipment from virtually anywhere over Ethernet or the Internet.

This singleport Device Server is a quick, simple and inexpensive way to bring the advantages of realtime or ondemand information access.

Standards Based Communications

Using an open Ethernet architecture as a standard provides the flexibility for equipment to communicate to virtually any type of industrial device.

When used in conjunction with an OPC server, most Windows® based HMI, SCADA and PCbased control applications have full access to information in the industrial equipment networked by the UDS1100IAP.

Extending Serial Communications Across the Globe

Our approach to networkenabling devices is transparent to your attached equipment and software so you wonât need to change the way you work. Using a method called serial tunneling, the UDS1100IAP encapsulates serial data into packets and transports it over Ethernet. Serial tunneling can be done in multiple ways:

• Using Lantronix supplied Com Port Redirector⢠software, Windows device applications not designed for network communications are redirected to communicate to devices connected to the UDS1100IAP.
• Connecting two UDS1100IAP Device Servers configured to automatically talk to each other over the network creates virtual serial connections that can extend serial communications across a facility or around the world.

Builtin Web Server

The builtin web server enables users to access and configure the UDS1100IAP from a standard web browser. Web pages enabling the UDS1100IAP to be customized for unique applications can be built using Lantronix development tools. Onboard Flash memory provides room for future system software upgrades and maintenancefree, nonvolatile web page storage.

Easy to Set Up and Use

The UDS1100IAP can be set up locally through its serial port, or remotely using Telnet or a web browser. The included DeviceInstaller⢠Windowsbased configuration software simplifies setup and provides an easy way to:

• Assign IP & other network specific addresses
• Load custom web pages
• Enable webbased configuration of the Device Server
• Ping or query the attached device(s) over the network
• View specific device data files
• Upgrade firmware
• Simplify process of installing industrial protocols

Complete with an auto MDI/MDIX Ethernet interface, the UDS1100IAP is a powerful device communication solution thatâs perfect for your most demanding industrial applications.

Modem Replacement

In modem emulation mode, the UDS is used to replace dialup modems. The unit accepts modem AT commands on the serial port. It then establishes a network connection to the end device, leveraging network connections and bandwidth to eliminate dedicated modems and phone lines.

RoHScompliant, the UDS1100IAP meets Directive 2002/95/EC on the restriction of the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment.

If youâre looking for a transparent, costeffective, and scalable means to networkenable your industrial automation equipment, look no further than the UDS1100IAP.
