User’s Manual of ICS-210x
The ICS-210x make connected Serial equipment becomes IP-based. That also makes them be able to connect to a TCP/IP
networking immediately. Each Web-Smart converter is able to manage through the Web Interface. The powerful
Web-Smart Media Converter supports Application mode, Serial operation mode connect alarm and IP address, etc.
Management function helps reduce the amount of valuable time that a network administrator spends detecting and locating
network problems, otherwise it requires visual inspection of cabling and equipment. Multiple connection options for large
networking environment are available as well.
The ICS-210x provides a high level of immunity to electromagnetic interference and heavy electrical surges typical of
environments found on plant floors or in curb side traffic control cabinets. The feature of operating temperature range of -10
to 60 Degree C coupled with hazardous location certification (Class 1 Division 2) allows the ICS-210x to be placed in almost
any location.
The ICS-210x equips with compact, IP-30 standard metal case that allows either DIN rail or wall mounting for efficient use
of cabinet space, the ICS-210x provides an integrated power supply source with wide range of voltages (12 to 48V DC or
24V AC) for worldwide operability with high availability applications requiring dual or backup power inputs.
1.4 Applications
Access Control System – Traditional Installation
Most of the enterprise and government use access control plate and Mifare or RFID to authorize the entrance identity. With
traditional deploy, access control machine use RS-232 or RS-485 serial interface and cables connect to login server. With
connection to ICS-210x Serial over Fast Ethernet Converter, the access control machine is able to be extend over longer
distances via fiber optical interface. The ICS-210x also can be linked to a xDSL router to get the internet access capability; the
access control can be set and monitored over the internet.

Process Control
To monitor, configure and manage the Robot conveyer including other machines in a manufacturing, PLC (Programmable
Logical Control) is required. The PLC is used to drive above the manufacturing machines process. The ICS-210x can be set
to TCP Server mode and connect the PLC. The administrator can configure and set command settings through Fast Ethernet
intranet to control the PLC, the administrator and workstation. There is no need to be always sets by the side of the I/O
machine.

RTU Data Collect – UDP Mode
Connect with RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) to collect and monitor the data of waves, signal and power utilization. ICS-210x
can be used to set-up UDP mode and send data over Fast Ethernet to Local server or over internet to remote server
automatically.

Step 3: Use the screws to screw the wall mount plate on the Industrial Equipment.
Step 4: Use the hook holes at the corners of the wall mount plate to hang the Industrial Equipment on the wall.
Step 5: To remove the wall mount plate, reverse steps above.
2.2.4 Stand-alone Installation
To install an ICS-210x stand-alone, on a desktop or shelf, simply complete the following steps:
Step 1: Turn off the power of the device/station in a network to which the ICS-210x will be attached.
Step 2: Ensure that there is no activity in the network.
Step 3: Attach RJ-45 / SC / LC Fiber cable from the ICS-210x to the network.
Step 4: Attach RS-232/RS-485 cable from the ICS-210x to the want to connect devices.
Step 5: Connect the DC power to the ICS-210x and verify that the Power LED lights up.
Step 6: Turn on the power of the device/station; the PWR LED (Green) should light when all cables are attached.

The ICS-210x must have an Internet Protocol (IP) address accessible for the remote host.
Figure 3-1 Web Management over Ethernet
3.3.2 Login the Media converter
Before you start configure the ICS-210x, please note the ICS-210x is configured through an Ethernet connection, make sure
the manager PC must be set on same the IP subnet address.
For example, the default IP address of the ICS-210x is 192.168.0.100, then the manager PC should be set at 192.168.0.x
(where x is a number between 1 and 254, except 100), and the default subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
1. Use Internet Explorer 7.0 or above Web browser. Enter IP address http://192.168.0.100 (the factory-default IP
address) to access the Web interface.
2. When the following login screen appears, please enter the default username and password (default user name and
password is "admin"). Press Login to enter the main screen of ICS-210x. The login screen in Figure 3-2 appears.
