4. Connect Serial Device (RS485): Connect your RS485 device to the A(+) and B(-) terminals on the RS485 terminal block. Ensure correct polarity.

4.2. Configurazione iniziale della rete

The device typically comes with a default static IP address, often 192.168.0.7 or 192.168.0.6Per accedere al web interface for configuration:

1. Collega PC: Ensure your PC is on the same network segment as the device. You may need to temporarily set your PC's IP address to be in the same subnet (e.g., 192.168.0.x, where x is not 6 or 7).
2. Accesso Web Interfaccia: Aprire un web browser and enter the device's default IP address (e.g., http://192.168.0.7) nella barra degli indirizzi.
3. Login: The default username and password are often amministratore / amministratore.
4. Configurare le impostazioni di rete: Once logged in, navigate to the network settings to configure the IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and DNS settings according to your network environment. You can choose between static IP or DHCP.
5. Configure Serial Settings: Adjust the serial port parameters (baud rate, data bits, stop bits, parity) to match your connected serial devices.

For advanced configuration or if the web interface is inaccessible, use the provided USR-VCOM virtual serial port software or other configuration tools available from the manufacturer's websito.

5. Modalità operative

The USR-TCP232-410S supports various operating modes to suit different application requirements:

• Modalità client TCP: The device initiates a connection to a specified TCP server. Data from the serial port is sent to the server, and data from the server is sent to the serial port.
• Modalità server TCP: The device listens for incoming TCP connections. Multiple clients can connect, and data is transparently transmitted between the serial port and the connected clients.
• Modalità UDP: Data is transmitted using the UDP protocol. This mode is connectionless and suitable for applications where speed is prioritized over guaranteed delivery.
• Modalità server UDP: The device listens for UDP packets on a specified port.
• HTTPD Client Mode: Allows the device to send serial data to a web server via HTTP requests.
• Modbus RTU to Modbus TCP: This mode enables seamless integration of Modbus RTU serial devices into a Modbus TCP/IP network. The device acts as a gateway, converting RTU frames to TCP frames and vice-versa. It also supports multi-host Modbus polling.
• MQTT/TCP/UDP/HTTP for IoT Cloud: The device can collect data from Modbus RTU/TCP and report it to IoT cloud platforms in JSON format using MQTT, TCP/UDP, or HTTP protocols. This includes support for up to 128 data points and data decoding/computation to reduce server load.
• SSL/TLS Encryption: For secure data transmission, the device supports SSL/TLS encryption in TCP client, HTTP client, and MQTT operation modes, including two-way certificate authentication.
