Overview 1. NET485 Overview 1.1 Overview The NET485 product allows you to connect to an RS422 / RS485 transceiver to enable rem ote serial communications over long distances (up to 4,000 ft.). Using RS485 two-wire mode, you can also connect the NET485’s serial interface to multiple devices in a multi-drop network.
Overview 1.2.1 The RS485 Enable Signal In a balanced differential system the data signals are produced by a line driver. The line driver generates a voltage across a pair of signal wires that transmits th e data signals. A balanced line driver can have an optional input signal called an “Enable” signal.
Overview The NET485 can handle both RS485 and RS422 comm unicati ons. This is done by connecting the XPort to a pair of RS485 transceivers. The following schematic demonstrates how the circuit is wired for RS422 and RS485. D R Vc c 3. 3V DE DI RO RE GN D 8 3 4 1 2 5 7 6 6 D R Vc c 3.
Overview 1.3 RS422 / RS485 Network connections 1.3.1 RS422 Networks A typical RS422 application uses a four-wire interface (two twisted pairs) and a shield. RS422 networks are often used in a half-duplex mode, where a single mast er in a system sends a command to a slave device and the slave responds with data.
Overview 1.3.2 RS485 Networks RS485 permits a balanced transmission line to be shared in a part y line or multi-drop configuration. As many as 32 driver / receiver pairs can share a multi-drop network on a single two wire bus. The length of the network is limited to 4,000 ft.

Device Installer 3.14.2 I/F (Inter face) Mode The Interface (I/F) Mode is a bit-coded byte that you enter in hexadecim al notation. Table 6 - Interface Mode Options I/F Mode Option 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 RS-.
Device Installer 3.14.4 Port Number The setting represents the source port number in TCP c onnections. It is the number used to identify the channel for remotely initiating connections. Note: When using Comm P ort Redirector software, use this port number.
Device Installer 3.14.5 Connect Mode Connect Mode defines how the unit makes a connection, and how it reacts to incoming connections over the network. Enter Connect Mode options in hexadecimal notation. Note: If you do not want to convert the binary numbers to hex adeci mals yourself, look up the values in the Tech Notes guide.
Device Installer INCOMING C ONNECTION : Never Accept Incoming: Rejects all external connection attempts. Accept with DTR Active: Accept external connection requests only when the DTR input is asserted. Cannot be used with Modem Mode. Always Accept: Accept any inco ming connection when a connection is not already established.
Device Installer Table 11 - Manual Connection Address Example Command String Result if remote IP is 129.1.2.3 and remote port is 1234 C121.2.4.5/1 Complete override; connecti on is started with host 121.2.4.5, port 1 C5 Connect to 129.1.2.5, port 1234 C28.
Device Installer 2. To delete, modify, or add an entry, select Yes . If you enter an IP address of 0.0.0.0, that entry and all others after it are deleted. 3. After completing the hostlist, repeat the previous step if necessary to ed it the hostlist again.
Device Installer Without Echo: In Modem Mode, echo refers to the echo of all of the characters entered in command mode; it does not mean to echo data that is transferred. Quiet Mode (without echo) refers to the modem not sending an answ er to the commands received (or displaying what was typed).
Device Installer 3. No serial data is received for one second after the last + character. At this time the unit will respond affirmatively per the selected echo/response mode. 4. The character string ATH is received, terminated with a carriage return.
Device Installer 3.14.8 Remote IP Address This is the destination IP address used with an outgoing connection. Note: This option does not display w hen H ostlist is enabled from the ConnectMode prompt. 3.14.9 Remote Port The remote TCP port number must be set for the unit to make outgoing connections.
Device Installer 3.14.11 Flush Mode (Buffer Flushing) Using this parameter, you can control line handlin g and network buffers with connection startup and disconnect.
Device Installer 3.14.12 Pack Control Two firmware-selectable packing algor ithms define how and when packets are sent to the network. The standard algorithm is optimized for applications in wh ich the unit is used in a local environment, allowing for very small delays for single characters while k eeping the packet count low.
Device Installer 3.14.14 Send Characters You can enter up to two characters in hexadecimal representation in the parameters "sendchar." If a character received on the serial line matches one of the se characters, it is sent immediately, along with any awaiting characters, to the TCP connection.
Device Installer *** Trigger 2 Enable serial trigger input (N) ? Trigger input1 [A/I/X] (X) ? Trigger input2 [A/I/X] (X) ? Trigger input3 [A/I/X] (X) ? Message (): Priority (L): Min.
Device Installer 3.16 Expert Settings Note: You can change these settings via Tel n et or se rial connections only, not on the Web-Manager. These parameters should only be changed if you are an expert and definitely know the consequences the changes might have.
Device Installer 3.16.6 HTTP Port Number This option allows changing the HTTP port number. Th e valid range is from 1 - 65535. The default value is 80. 3.16.7 SMTP Port Number This option allows you to configure the SMTP (em a il) port number. Valid range is from 1 - 65535.
Device Installer 3.17 Security Settings Note: You can change these settings via Tel net or serial c onnections only, not on the Web-Mana ger. We recommend that you set security over the dedicated network or over t he serial setup. If you set parameters over the netw ork (Telne t 9999), someone else could ca pture these s ettings.
Device Installer 3.17.5 Disable Port 77FE (Hex) Note: If you choose to disable this option, keep in mind that disabling both Telnet Setup and Port 77FE will prevent users from accessing the setup menu fro m the netw ork. Port 77FE is a setting that allows Device Installer, Web-ma nager, and custom programs to configure the unit remotely.
Device Installer Generally, one of two situations applies: Encrypted NET485-to-NET485 communication. Be sure to configure both NET485 devices with the same encryption key. Third-party application to NET485-encrypted communication: NET485 uses standard AES encryption protocols.
Monitor Mode 4. Monitoring the Network Monitor Mode is a command-line inte rface used for diagnostic purposes. 4.1.1 Entering Monitor Mode via the Network Port To enter Monitor Mode using a Telnet connection: 1. Establish a Telnet session to the configuration po rt ( 999 9) .

Troubleshooting 6. Troubleshooting This chapter discusses how you can diagnose and fix errors quickly without having to c o n t a c t G r i d C o n n e c t . When troubleshooting, always ensure that the physi cal connections (power cable , network cable, and serial cable) are secure.
Troubleshooting does not respond for a long time. The device server may not have a network connection. Make sure that the Link L ED is li t. If the Link LED is not lit, then th e device server does not have a network connection. The device server is not communicating w ith the serial device it is attached to .
Tables 7. Binary to Hex Conversion Many of the unit’s configuration procedures require a ssembling a series of options (represented as bits) into a complete command (represented as a b yte). Convert the resulting binary value to a hexadecimal representation.
