Getting to Know Your Device Server
1.1 About the IDS-141A / IDS-181A Serial Device Server
IDS-141A / IDS-181A is an innovative 4 & 8 ports RS232 to LAN device
server. Users are able to configure IDS-141A / IDS-181A by DS-Tool via
LAN port. IDS-141A / IDS-181A offers many powerful features for HW &
SW redundant functions.
IDS-141A / IDS-181A can simultaneously transfer data into 5 host PCs.
This feature can assure all critical data that saved in different host PCs to
avoid Ethernet break or host PCs failure.
Secondly, the IDS-141A / IDS-181A provides dual redundant power inputs on terminal block.
IDS-141A / IDS-181A also provides NAT pass through function so that users are able to
manage IDS-141A / IDS-181A inside or outside the NAT router. It is easy for different IP
domain users to use IDS-141A / IDS-181A. Therefore, IDS-141A / IDS-181A is the best
communication redundant solution for current application of serial devices.
1.2 Software Features
NAT-pass through: User can manage IDS-141A / IDS-181A through NAT router.
Redundant Power Inputs: 12~48VDC on terminal block. & power jack
Redundant multiple host devices: 5 simultaneous in Virtual COM, TCP Server, TCP Client
mode, and 4 simultaneous for UDP mode.

Hardware Installation
2.1 Install IDS-141A / IDS-181A on DIN-Rail
Each IDS-141A / IDS-181A has a Din-Rail kit on rear panel. The Din-Rail kit helps IDS-141A /
IDS-181A to fix on the Din-Rail. It is easy to install the IDS-141A / IDS-181A on the Din-Rail:
2.1.1 Mount IDS-141A / IDS-181A on DIN-Rail
Step 1: Slant the IDS-141A / IDS-181A and mount the metal spring to Din-Rail.
Figure 2-1

Step 2: Push the IDS-141A / IDS-181A toward the Din-Rail until you heard a “click”
sound.
Figure 2-2
2.2 Wall Mounting Installation
Each IDS-141A / IDS-181A has another installation method for you. A wall mount panel can
be found in the package. The following steps show how to mount the IDS-141A / IDS-181A on
the wall:

Step 2: Use 6 screws that can be found in the package to combine the wall mount panel.
Just like the picture shows below:
Figure 2-4
The screws specification shows in the following two pictures. In order to prevent IDS-141A
/ IDS-181A from any damage, the size of screws should not be larger than the size that
used in IDS-141A / IDS-181A.

In Virtual COM Mode, The driver establishes a transparent connection between host

port on the host computer. Virtual COM Mode also supports up to 5 simultaneous
connections, so that multiple hosts can send or receive data by the same serial
device at the same time.

Service Mode – TCP Server Mode
In TCP Server Mode, DS is configured with a unique Port combination on a TCP/IP
network. In this case, DS waits passively to be contacted by the device. After a
connection is established, it can then proceed with data transmission. TCP Server
mode also supports up to 5 simultaneous connections, so that multiple device can
receive data from the same serial device at the same time.

IP Configuration
You must assign a valid IP address for DS before attached in your network
environment. Your network administrator should provide you with the IP address
and related settings. The IP address must be unique and within the network
(otherwise, DS will not have a valid connection to the network). You can choose
from three possible “IP configuration” modes: Static, DHCP/BOOTP. The Factory
Default IP address is “192.168.10.2”

Service Mode – Virtual COM Mode
In Virtual COM Mode, the driver establishes a transparent connection between host
and serial device by mapping the Port of the serial server serial port to local COM
port on the host computer. Virtual COM Mode also supports up to 5 simultaneous
connections, so that multiple hosts can send or receive data by the same serial
device at the same time.

Service Mode – TCP Server Mode
In TCP Server Mode, DS is configured with a unique Port combination on a TCP/IP
network. In this case, DS waits passively to be contacted by the device. After the
device establishes a connection with the serial device, it can then proceed with data
transmission. TCP Server mode also supports up to 5 simultaneous connections,
so that multiple device can receive data from the same serial device at the same
time.

Compared to TCP communication, UDP is faster and more efficient. In UDP
mode, you can Uni-cast or Multi-cast data from the serial device server to host
computers, and the serial device can also receive data from one or multiple

Access IP Control
Access IP Control Settings allow you to add or block the remote host IP
addresses to prevent unauthorized access. If host’s IP address is in the
accessible IP table, then the host will be allowed to access the DS. You can
choose one of the following cases by setting the parameter.
1. Only one host with a special IP address can access the device server, “IP
address /255.255.255.255” (e.g., “192.168.0.1/255.255.255.255”).
2. Hosts on a specific subnet can access the device server. “IP
address/255.255.255.0” (e.g., “192.168.0.2/255.255.255.0”)
3. Any host can access the device server. Disable this function by
un-checking the “Enable IP Filter” checkbox
