SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Device Networking starts with a Device Server™, which enables virtually any device
with a serial port (RS-232, RS-422/485) to connect to Ethernet networks quickly and
cost effectively.
The MSS family of Device Servers includes all of the elements needed for device
networking - a processor, an operating system, a robust TCP/IP stack,a web server,
and a network connection to provide an Ethernet bridge to serial devices.
The MSS connects to virtually any serial device, for example:
•
Barcode scanners
•
Card readers and receipt printers
•
Scales
•
Automation equipment, PLC, and motor drives
•
LED message displays
•
Medical blood analyzers and ventilators
•
Security and access control systems
Our approach to device networking is transparent to your software and attached
devices - meaning that you won’t need to a make any software or configuration
changes. It’s also scalable and does not require a server or gateway, giving you the
flexibility to tackle a project of any size.
The MSS Device Servers are equipped with high-speed asynchronous serial ports
supporting baud rates between 300 and 230.3k bits per second,and a 10/100
Ethernet port. In addition, the MSS-VIA has a PC card interface providing 802.11
wireless access to connected devices.
This Quick Start guide explains how to connect, configure, and troubleshoot your
unit. For more detailed information and alternative configuration methods, refer to
the User Guide and Reference Manual on the CD ROM supplied with this product.

IP ADDRESSING
Your unit must have a unique IP address on your network.
The systems administrator generally provides the IP address.The IP address
must be within a valid range, unique to your network, and in the same subnet
as your PC.You’ll need the following information before you set up the unit.
(See Assign IP.)
IP Address: ___ ___ ___ ___
Subnet Mask: ___ ___ ___ ___
CONNECT
1) Mount or place the MSS in a secured room.
2) Connect serial devices to the serial ports.
3) Connect your network to the MSS (via one of its Ethernet ports or
