2.1 Understanding the ADAM-4570

The ADAM-4570 is an advanced data gateway unit. It

extends traditional COM ports of a PC with access over a

TCP/IP network. Through networking, you can control and

monitor remote serial devices either over a LAN or over the

WAN.

Since the ADAM-4570 is connected through a TCPIP

network, you will need to know some basic facts about

networking in order to get the server hooked up correctly.

2.1.1 Network Architecture

Traditional serial port communication uses a COM port board

that slides into one of the slots at the back of your PC. In this

case, only the computer containing the board can access the

serial port. With the ADAM-4570, you are now able to

access the COM port from a distance through local area

network. The ADAM-4570 can be integrated within the

network architecture of any protocol. Note, all serial devices

which are connected to the port must have the same protocol

running and the same transmission speed. Connect devices

running different protocols to different ports of the ADAM-

4570.
