The TDS-700 series are Serial-to-Ethernet Device Servers that add Ethernet and Internet connectivity to any RS-232 and RS-422/485 device. Virtual COM ports are set up with he VxComm Driver/Utility so the built-in COM port of the TDS-700 series can be virtualized to a standard PC COM port in Windows. The TDS-700 device servers can be used to create a pair-connection application (as well as a serial-bridge or serial-tunnel), and then route data over TCP/IP between two serial devices. It's useful when connecting to mainframe computers, servers or other serial devices that do not themselves have Ethernet capability.

The tDS-715 is a Serial-to-Ethernet device server designed to add Ethernet and Internet connectivity capabilities to any RS-485/RS-422 devices, and to eliminate cable length limitation of traditional serial communication. By using the VxComm Driver/Utility, the built-in COM port of the tDS-715 RS-485/RS-422 to Ethernet device server can be virtualized to a standard PC COM port in Windows. Therefore, users can access or monitor serial devices over Internet/Ethernet without software modification.• Enable any RS-485/RS-422 serial devices with Ethernet
capabilities • VxComm Driver for 32-bit and 64-bit Windows
XP/2003/2008/Vista/7 • Supports pair-connection (serial-bridge, serial-tunnel)
application • Powerful 32-bit MCU handles efficient network

The tGW-700 series are Modbus TCP to RTU/ASCII Device Servers that enable a Modbus/TCP host to communicate with serial Modbus RTU/ASCII devices through Ethernet networks. They eliminates the cable length limitation of legacy serial communication devices. The tGW-7000 serial device servers can be used to create a pair-connection application (as well as a serial-bridge or serial-tunnel application), and can then route data over TCP/IP between two serial Modbus RTU/ASCII devices; which is useful when connecting to mainframe computers, servers or other serial devices that use Modbus RTU/ASCII protocols and do not themselves have Ethernet capability.

Firmware Update (1/2)• Connect the tGW-700 to the same HUB or same sub-network as your PC. (For tDS-
700, tGW-700, PETL-7000 and tPET Series)
• Right-click above the module name and choose the firmware file in “eSearch Utility”.
• Power-on reboot the module in initial mode to request the update.

Modbus Device Servers | Maria Lemone | 5/15/15
Firmware Update (2/2)
• The tGW-700 has a built-in feature of flash protection that prohibits modification to the firmware in the flash. Before updating the firmware, we have to set “Init Switch” in “Init” state and then power-on reboot the tGW-700 and disable the flash protection. Since the flash becomes writable, we can update the firmware through the Ethernet network 。
• The code (in the boot loader) used to update the firmware image is not part of the firmware it-self. Thus, users can update the firmware even the built-in one is broken or does not exist. If the firmware update fails, we just need to rerun the update procedures again.
