PART 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Safety and EMC Considerations This device is marked with the international caution symbol. It is important to read this manual before installing or commissioning this device as it contains important information relating to Safety and EMC (Electromagnetic Compatibility). This instrument is a panel mount device protected in accordance with EN 61010- 1:2001, electrical safety requirements for electrical equipment for measurement, control and laboratory. Installation of this

1.2 Description This iServer board can be purchased as a stand alone unit, or as an option for an iLD monitor/controller (Embedded Ethernet iServer) with a RS485 communication port interface. Some iLD Big Display monitors/controllers do not utilize RS485 communications. In such models, the RS485 instructions do not apply. The Embedded Ethernet Server is designed to connect industrial devices with serial interfaces to the Ethernet network using the TCP/IP protocol. It contains an Ethernet Server

2.4 Serial Communication Interfaces (For Models with RS485 Port) The iLD Big Display controller/monitor with the Embedded Ethernet Server option board support only RS485/422 interfaces. These standards define the electrical characteristics of a communication network. The RS485 port of the Ethernet Server is fully compatible for use with RS422 instruments. The RS485 is an extended version of the RS422 communication standard which increases the allowable number of devices from 10 to 32 by improvin

2.4.1 Wiring RS485 Interface RS485 interface uses a two-wire communication system (one for transmitting and one for receiving) plus a common wire to connect to the shield of the cable. It is recommended to use a shielded cable with one twisted pair. Use of twisted pair and shield will significantly improve noise immunity. Figure 2.3 shows multi-point, half-duplex RS485 interface connections for the iServer. DEVICE #1 DEVICE #29 ......................... iLD Big Display TB4 1 2 3 ............

2.5 Network Communication Interfaces 2.5.1 10Base-T RJ-45 Pinout The 10BASE-T Ethernet network (RJ-45) system is used in the iServer for network connectivity. The 10 Mbps twisted-pair Ethernet system operates over two pairs of wires. One pair is used for receiving data signals and the other pair is used for transmitting data signals. This means that four pins of the eight-pin connector are used. Pin Name Description 1 +Tx + Transmit Data 2 -Tx - Transmit Data 3 +RX + Receive Data 4 N/C Not Conne

PART 3 NETWORK CONFIGURATION 3.1 Network Protocols The iServer can be connected to the network using standard TCP/IP protocols. It also supports ARP, HTTP (WEB server), DHCP, DNS and Telnet protocols. 3.2 Ethernet (MAC) Address MAC (Media Access Control) address is your computer's unique hardware number. When you're connected to the LAN from your computer, a correspondence table relates your IP address to your computer's physical (MAC) address. The MAC address can be found on the label of your

3.3 DHCP DHCP, Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol enables individual computers or devices to extract their IP configurations from a server (DHCP server). If the DHCP is enabled on your iServer, as soon as the iServer is connected to the network, there is an exchange of information between DHCP server and the iServer. During this process the IP address, the Gateway address, and the Subnet Mask will be assigned to the iServer by the DHCP server. Note that the DHCP server must be configured corre

3.5 IP Address Every active device connected to the TCP/IP network must have a unique IP address. This IP address is used to build a connection to the iServer’s serial port. Every computer using TCP/IP should have a unique 32-bit address. It is divided into two portions, the network ID and the host ID. For instance, every computer on the same network uses the same network ID. At the same time, all of them have a different host ID. For more details about the IP address see Appendix B. 3.5.1 Defa

PART 4 OPERATIONS An industrial device with serial interfaces (PLC, CNC controllers, PC, Data Display Devices, etc.) can be connected to the serial port of the Web Server. 4.1 SERIAL INTERFACE CONFIGURATION - Communication Protocol A data communication protocol defines the rules and structure of messages used by all devices on a network for data exchange. A typical transaction will consist of a request to send from the MASTER followed by the response from one or more SLAVE devices. Either a sing

4.4 OPERATIONS This iServer can be used and configured in several ways, depending on user’s preference and network setup. It can be used in Telnet simulation mode where it emmulates serial communication operation over a network cable or directly from a Web browser, like Netscape or Internet Explorer. If DHCP and DNS servers are used, the connection is very simple, you do not need to worry about IP address, MAC address, or network conflicts, all of these issues are solved for you by your network
