2-2. Features

SD-330AC is a serial device server which allows you to connect to serial devices via wired or wireless LAN. SD-330AC has the following features:
* Share various serial devices
By using SD-330AC and the serial device connection utility, "SX Virtual Link for Serial Device Server", you can share various serial devices among Windows PCs (for details on the supported OS, refer to 2-6. Software Specications). Serial devices can be used as if they were connected directly to your PC.
* Support various applications
In addition to SX Virtual Link for Serial Device Server, SD-330AC has 2 communication modes as follows to support a wide variety of network environments and operating systems.
Ecable Mode
If two SD-330AC's are used, you can communicate with serial devices or PCs with no network interface over the network. For details, refer to 6-2. Ecable Mode (Link to the
Registered Device).
Raw TCP Connection Mode
Serial port data can be sent or received transparently over TCP/IP. You can communicate with a serial device using an application that runs on the TCP Socket API. For details, refer to 6-3. Raw TCP Connection Mode (Link to Serial Device Using TCP Raw Port).
* IEEE802.11a/b/g/n/ac Wireless LAN standard
SD-330AC supports IEEE802.11a/b/g/n/ac which allows sharing of various serial devices over a wireless network. For authentication method, WEP, WPA and WPA2 can be selected, and 128 bit for WEP, AUTO for WPA and AES for WPA2 can be selected respectively as the encryption method. Also, as IEEE802.1X is supported, LEAP/EAP-TLS/EAP-TTLS/PEAP/EAP-FAST can be used.

SD-330AC User's Manual
* Access Point Feature
Various wireless devices can be used over a wireless network using the Access Point feature of SD-330AC.
* To connect to a wireless network using the Access Point feature of SD-330AC, the same wireless setting
needs to be congured to SD-330AC and your wireless client device.
Note
* Easy Wireless Conguration
Wireless conguration using the push button or PIN code is available to congure SD-330AC when your wireless router supports WPS.
* AMC Manager (non-free program) / AMC Manager (free program)
SD-330AC supports the total management software, "AMC Manager". The AMC Manager provides the useful features as follows:
- Remote device control and monitoring
- Bulk conguration and rmware updates

Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
FCC Rules, Part 15 §15.19(a)(3) / IC RSS Gen §8.4
Below sentences must be indicated on the final product which contains this module inside. This device complies with Part 15 of FCC Rules and Industry Canada licence-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of this device.
Le présent appareil est conforme à la partie 15 des règles de la FCC et CNR d'Industrie Canada applicables aux appareils radio exempts de licence. L'exploitation est autorisée aux deux conditions suivantes : (1) l'appareil ne doit pas produire de brouillage, et (2) l'appareil doit accepter tout brouillage subi, même si le brouillage est susceptible d'en compromettre le fonctionnement.
FCC Rules Part 15 Subpart C §15.247 and Subpart E / IC RSS-102 §2.6
This equipment complies with FCC/IC radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment and meets the FCC radio frequency (RF) Exposure Guidelines and RSS-102 of the IC radio frequency (RF) Exposure rules. This equipment should be installed and operated keeping the radiator at least 20cm or more away from person’s body.

Cet équipement est conforme aux limites d’exposition aux rayonnements énoncées pour un environnement non contrôlé et respecte les règles les radioélectriques (RF) de la FCC lignes directrices d'exposition et d’exposition aux fréquences radioélectriques (RF) CNR-102 de l’IC. Cet équipement doit être installé et utilisé en gardant une distance de 20 cm ou plus entre le radiateur et le corps humain.
FCC Rules Part 15 Subpart E §15.407(c)
Compliance with FCC requirement 15.407(c) Data transmission is always initiated by software, which is then passed down through the MAC, through the digital and analog baseband, and nally to the RF chip. Several special packets are initiated by the MAC. These are the only ways the digital baseband portion will turn on the RF transmitter, which it then turns o at the end of the packet. Therefore, the transmitter will be on only while one of the aforementioned packets is being transmitted. In other words, this device automatically discontinues transmission in case of either absence of information to transmit or operational failure.

2-7. Wireless Interference Information

Notes

Do not use SD-330AC near the following devices or places.
The following equipment may use the same band. If you use this product near this equipment, the radio waves from SD-330AC and the following devices may interfere with each other.
* Industrial, scientic and medical devices such as microwave, pacemaker, etc. * Licensed radio station in a factory * Small power radio station (A non-licensed radio station)
Do not use SD-330AC near a cellular phone, TV or Radio.
A cellular phone, TV, and radio use a dierent radio band than our product. Generally if they are used near SD-330AC, it will not cause a problem. However, when they approximate SD­330AC, sound or image noise can happen.
If there is reinforced concrete/metal between wireless devices, they may not connect.
SD-330AC can connect through wood or glass, but may have troubles connecting through reinforced concrete/metal.
Wireless Equipment for 2.4GHz band
This band of equipment is used by a microwave, industry, science, medical equipment and licensed in room or low power (non licensed) radio stations.
* Before you use this equipment, verify that it will not interfere with other broadcasting. * If interference happens, stop using the equipment or change the band. Contact us to
discuss ways of avoiding interference (example: create the wall).
DS/OF2.4 4
2.4 : Wireless devices using 2.4GHz frequency band
DS/OF : DS-SS or OFDM is used as modulation.

2-8. Notes on Security

Because a wireless LAN uses electromagnetic signals instead of a network cable to establish communication with network devices, it has the advantage of allowing devices to connect to the network easily. However, a disadvantage of this is that within a certain range, the electromagnetic signals can pass through barriers such as walls, and if security countermeasures are not implemented in some way, problems such as the following may occur:
* Communication is intercepted by a third party * Unauthorized access to the network * Leakage of personal information (ID and Card information) * Spoong and the falsication of intercepted data * System crashes and data corruption
Nowadays, wireless LAN cards or access points are equipped with security measures that address such security problems, so that you can enable security-related settings for wireless LAN products in order to reduce the likelihood of problems occurring. We recommend that you make yourself fully acquainted with the possible implications of what might happen if you use a wireless product without enabling security features, and that you configure security-related settings and use wireless products at your own responsibility.

5-2. Ecable Mode

(Link to the Registered Device)

What is Ecable Mode?

Ecable Mode is a feature that allows serial devices with no network interface to communicate with each other using two SD-330AC's.
One SD-330AC is used as a transmitter and the other one is used as a receiver, and a serial device is connected for each end. To allow communication between them, the IP address of the receiver needs to be registered to the transmitter. When both SD-330AC's are turned on and the network connection is established, the serial devices can communicate with each other via SD-330AC.
