The HelloDevice LS100M is a cost-effective and easy-to-use single-chip serial-Ethernet communication module.
Convertor runs online terminals over IP networks
The SS800 can connect online lottery terminals to IP networks, while retaining existing lottery equipment and network infrastructure.
Also, it accommodates the broad spectrum of power requirements used in industrial automation environments by offering voltage from 9 to 30V.
Furthermore, It includes device management and control capabilities like log storage, automatic email delivery of error log, full-featured system status display and the ability to download and upgrade firmware through serial console or telnet.
The PS100B has the support of 10Mbit/s Ethernet network, and provides versatile raw connection modes for sockets, such as TCP server, TCP client, UDP server/client, pair connection, and Ethernet modem, making PS100B a flexible tool for many applications.
In addition to industry leading low latency, and high throughput, the unit is supplied with a static key based 3DES data encryption to promise secure data communication over the industrial networks.
The PS100B can use TCP/UDP tunnelling to facilitate direct connection between two industrial devices across a network allowing them to communicate as if they were the only two devices around.
The benefits of network-enabling industrial devices include: reduced maintenance costs through remote monitoring and management, real-time access to information, increased flexibility and performance with distributed intelligence, the use of existing Ethernet wiring and minimising costs by sharing devices among users.
