Specifications

Product Description

The MultiConnect serial-to-serial device server enables installed serial devices to connect to the Internet for remote
monitoring, control and configuration.

Internet-Enable Any Device. The MultiConnect provides the powerful ability to IP-enable serial devices allowing

more options for data acquisition, device management, and industrial control than would otherwise be available.
Simply install the MultiConnect between a serial device and an analog, ISDN, or wireless modem to send and receive

data over the Internet. It can also serve as a single Web page in response to a Web browser request.

Reduces Development Time. MultiConnect can make your existing and next generation serial device IP-ready

without requiring hardware changes to its design. MultiConnect actually provides faster time-to-market because it
relieves the burden and expense of writing and maintaining Internet applications. The complete, ready-to-integrate
MultiConnect allows you to enhance your product while you focus on developing its core features.

Management and Configuration. MultiConnect has several means of management and configuration built into the

design. It supports remote configuration, which means you can have central site setup and control of the remote
MultiConnect device servers via the command line interface or telnet.

Applications

The MultiConnect will IP-enable any device to provide remote monitoring, control and configuration of any system.
The solution is ideal for the following applications:

• Appliances

• ATM terminals

• Credit card and check verification systems

• Data collection

• Gas pumps

• Industrial and medical remote monitoring systems

• Point-of-sale terminals

• Remote diagnostics

• Remote metering

• Security systems

• Ticketing machines

• Vending/gaming machines

• And more…..

Chapter 2 – Installation

Attaching the MultiConnect to a Fixed
Location

The MultiConnect device server is design to be used on the desktop or to be panel-mounted. To attach the bracket
for panel-mounting, following these steps:

1. Typically, the MultiConnect device server is mounted against a flat surface with two mounting screws. Drill the
mounting holes at the desired location. The mounting holes must separated by 4 -15/16 inches center-to-center.

2. To attach the brackets to the MultiConnect, slide the mounting brackets into the corresponding slots on the back
of the MultiConnect chassis.

3. Attach the device server to the surface with two screws.

Chapter 6 – Flash Upgrade

Introduction

The MultiConnect device server contains a 2 MB flash wherein the boot image, the firmware and configuration
files are stored in a compressed format.

Serial Flash Upgrade Scenario

Following steps explain the procedure to upgrade a flash using the serial COM port (serial flash upgrade).

Connect the MultiConnect to a PC COM Port.

• Open an application through which we can access the serial device(e.g., Meterm, zoc, hyperterm).

• Reboot the MultiConnect.

• Wait for the boot message and prompt “press d to download” to appear.

• Press d when prompted.

• Select the XMODEM Protocol from the Terminal application.

• Choose a file (MTXCSEM-TFTP-…) file to be uploaded.

• Perform a file upload.

The MultiConnect reboots and will be up after a few seconds (10-15 secs).
The MultiConnect reboots after it has been successfully upgraded.

Appendix C – WEEE Statement (Waste Electrical & Electronic Equipment)

Appendix C – WEEE Directive (Waste

Electrical and Electronic Equipment)

Introduction

The WEEE directive places an obligation on EU-based manufacturers, distributors, retailers and importers
to take-back electronics products at the end of their useful life. A sister Directive, ROHS (Restriction of
Hazardous Substances) complements the WEEE Directive by banning the presence of specific
hazardous substances in the products at the design phase. The WEEE Directive covers all Multi-Tech
products imported into the EU as of August 13, 2005. EU-based manufacturers, distributors, retailers and
importers are obliged to finance the costs of recovery from municipal collection points, reuse, and
recycling of specified percentages per the WEEE requirements.

Instructions for Disposal of WEEE by Users in the
European Union

The symbol shown below is on the product or on its packaging, which indicates that this product must not
be disposed of with other waste. Instead, it is the user’s responsibility to dispose of their waste equipment
by handing it over to a designated collection point for the recycling of waste electrical and electronic
equipment. The separate collection and recycling of your waste equipment at the time of disposal will help
to conserve natural resources and ensure that it is recycled in a manner that protects human health and
the environment. For more information about where you can drop off your waste equipment for recycling,
please contact your local city office, your household waste disposal service or where you purchased the
product.
