#Kepserverex 4 rs232 serial#
TCP-Com was originally designed to expose an RS232 serial port on a PC to a TCP/IP port so that RS232 serial data can be sent and received across a TCP/IP network.
#Kepserverex 4 rs232 pro#
The new WinWedge 32 Pro will include the upgraded TCP-Com software.


These applications solve many different data collection and communications needs. WinWedge 32 Pro also includes many utility programs for RS232 and TCP/IP based data collection and communications. It is popular for collecting real-time data from balances, pH meters, sensors, gages, bar code scanners, meters and other instruments. WinWedge 32 Pro collects RS232 data from any laboratory instrument or device directly into Excel, Access, LIMS and other Windows applications.

This software will start shipping on March 9 2004, the first day of Pittcon. TALtech Inc is pleased to announce that it will be demonstrating the latest version of its WinWedge 32 Pro software at Pittcon 2004 in Chicago. WinWedge® 32 Pro to include the new TCP-Com(TM) v2.0, RS232 to TCP/IP Software It also enables users to create Virtual COM Ports that are actually TCP/IP port connections. Software incorporates TCP-Com v2.0, which exposes RS232 serial port on PC to TCP/IP port so that RS232 serial data can be sent and received across TCP/IP network. The benefits of USB-to-Serial converters can also be realized in applications with a serial network of RS-485 devices.WinWedge 32 Pro collects RS232 data from laboratory instruments/devices directly into various Windows applications and includes utility programs for RS232 and TCP/IP based data collection and communications. With only one USB port, users can expand the serial ports by 1, 2, 3, 4, and 8 depending on their needs. The USB-to-Serial converters, however, provide a simple plug-and-play solution. Depending on the PC, there is typically only one spare interrupt available.

Users can add more serial ports by using an off-the-shelf PCI card, but that can be time-consuming and sometimes difficult. Using the standard PC COM port, users would only be able to access two of these PLCs. Take another scenario where the PLCs only support RS-232. To refine the application further, use a multi-port USB-to-Serial Converter. By using four serial ports, KEPServerEX can dedicate a single thread of execution to the task of gathering data from only a single device instead of the round-robin from four devices. In KEPServerEX, each independent COM serial port configured in the server is essentially its own thread of execution. If a multi-port USB-to-Serial converter is applied, however, the improvement in acquisition cycle time is almost four-fold. It is possible to "round-robin" over the Serial port to get the data from the PLCs one at a time.

While most applications can benefit from the methods discussed here, each application is unique and may not see the full performance gains described.įor example, take a scenario where users have an application that needs to gather data from four PLCs but there is only one COM port on the PC. There is no additional cost in KEPServerEX to use additional serial ports up to 100 ports are supported.

Users looking to buy a multi-port converter for their application can get direct support on Edgeport products. The Edgeport 1, 1i, and 4s USB-to-Serial converters have been tested with the KEPServerEX communications platform.
#Kepserverex 4 rs232 driver#
For otherSerial communications converters, refer to Kepware's Driver List for KEPServerEX. Users can configure multiple Serial communication ports using a hardware solution via Edgeport's USB-to-Serial Converters. To access the shared serial port setting, open the Communications tab located in Channel Properties This functionality is supported by select drivers. Note: KEPServerEX supports Serial COM Port Sharing, where a single COM port can be shared among different Serial devices that take turns communicating over the connection. In either case, the application needs to access multiple devices from the PC's single serial port. Some devices support the ability to be multi-dropped via RS-422 or RS-485, while others may only support a single point-to-point connection via RS-232. In many industrial applications, the best way to access process information is through the device's Serial port.
