1. What is Ecable Mode?

Ecable Mode is a feature to make serial devices with no network interface communicate each other using two SX-520. 

Connect SX-520 to each transmitter end and receiver end, and register the IP address of receiver end as a destination address of transmitter end. As they are powered on, both SX-520 will start communicating each other, and which realizes a bidirectional communication between these serial devices.


2. Before You Begin

Change the settings to use this product in Ecable Mode. 

Access the Web page of this product that you wish to use as a transmitter end. 


In the left pane of Web page, click Serial Conf.


In the page displayed, configure the following settings at General Configuration appropriate for your serial device.

  • Baud Rate
  • Bits per character
  • Stop Bits
  • Parity
  • Flow Control
  • Send delay(micro sec/word)  (* Usually, the default value is used. Change this value only when it is necessary.)

Enter the IP address of receiver end (another SX-520) to Destination IP Address.
And enter the port number that you wish to use to TCP Port.

When completed, click Submit button. 



Also, access to the Web page of receiver end and configure the settings at General Configuration, TCP Port and Destination IP Address.

  • For TCP Port, enter the same value for both receiver end and transmitter end.

When completed, click Submit button.


The configuration has been completed.
