Serial to LAN Embedded Module White Paper
Device Connectivity Management
As a qualified serial to LAN embedded module, Eddy receives RS232 or RS422/485 signals from
connected devices and transmits them to the network, and vice versa. Maximum serial communication
speed can reach up to 921.6Kbps, providing a fast and a stable data transmission. Various network
protocols are supported, including TCP, UDP, Telnet, ICMP, DHCP, TFTP, HTTP, and PPP providing wider
communication flexibility. World’s standard network management protocol SNMP (Simple Network
Management Protocol) 1 and 2 are also supported, providing a complete control of your device.
Configuration
There are many factors that determine the serial to LAN embedded module’s environment, and Eddy
offers you easy but in-depth configuration selections. The settings include serial communication,
network, security, management, and other advanced settings. You can configure settings through web
or telnet. When configuring by web, you can just use your web browser to access your Eddy and easy
web interface will guide you through options. You can also access Eddy via telnet, and use preset
commands to apply changes.
Real Time Linux, Lemonix
™
Lemonix is a real-time Linux system built on Linux kernel 2.6.x. Standard Linux kernel 2.6.x has been
revised to support Real Time capability while retaining the stable traits and merits of Linux kernel
2.6.x. Real time scheduler, preemptive kernel and lock-break methods have been implemented on
Lemonix to guarantee a maximum response latency of under 37us enabling a stable and reliable means
of real time communication. And to provide a complete compatibility with LemonIDE, Eclipse based
IDE, an easy debugging and remote control for the target agent system has been implemented. Also,
MMU (Memory Management Unit) is supported, enabling developers to explore and compile Linux Open
Sources on Eddy without constraints.
